Abstract
⺠Fuel poverty of New Zealand households is rising with electricity prices. ⺠Average indoor housing temperatures are low by international standards. ⺠Excess winter mortality and hospitalisation remain relatively high. ⺠Trials of retrofitted insulating and heating have influenced policy programmes. ⺠Fuel poverty benefits of programmes could be overshadowed by rising energy prices.
