Reducing Household Energy Costs (Revised Wording)
That this Assembly acknowledges the role that poorly insulated and energy-inefficient social housing plays in driving up energy costs, thus contributing to fuel poverty; notes the benefits of reducing carbon emissions from the housing sector; recognises the value of interventions, such as retrofitting, which will deliver affordable warmth and reduce household energy bills; further recognises the role of renewables in creating energy security and the value of the targets and objectives for electricity consumption from renewable sources outlined in the Climate Change Act (Northern Ireland) 2022 and agreed by all Executive parties; and calls on the Minister for Communities to bring forward proposals for the redesign of social homes, incorporating higher energy efficiency standards and renewable energy integration.
