Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what proportion of off-gas grid households using (a) heating oil and (b) liquefied petroleum gas have an Energy Efficiency Rating of Band C or higher.

Of the households off the gas grid using heating oil as the main fuel in Great Britain in 2014, 37,000 households are estimated to have an energy efficiency rating of A-C, 373,000 are at Band D, 448,000 are at Band E, 317,000 are at band F or lower.

For the existing survey data, the sample sizes for households off the gas grid using LPG as the main fuel is too small for us to provide robust estimates on their EPC ratings.
