Energy tariff options for consumers in vulnerable situations

Energy tariff options for consumers in vulnerable situations [ 2.8 mb] aims to provide researchers, policy makers and energy market stakeholders with a better understanding of the possible options to ensure that disengaged vulnerable consumers are not penalised by higher tariffs.
