The Energy Poverty Research Network (formerly Fuel Poverty Research Network) invites you to attend and contribute to their 2026 conference, 27th and 28th October 2026 in Manchester and online with a parallel event in Sydney Australia. The event marks ten years since our first network meeting and is an opportunity to reflect on a decade of collaboration and to look forward in the context of a rapidly developing field. Whether you are researching energy poverty or housing, developing policy, or working directly with people experiencing energy poverty, this is an opportunity to meet others, share ideas and stories, and engage with the latest developments.
