English Housing Survey: Fuel Poverty Dataset, 2018

<div class="x_x_collapse x_x_in" id="x_x_abstract"><span class=""> <p></p> <p><em>Fuel Poverty Dataset</em></p> <p>The fuel poverty dataset is comprised of fuel poverty variables derived from the English Housing Survey (EHS), and a number of EHS variables commonly used in fuel poverty reporting. The fieldwork for the EHS is carried out each financial year (between April and March). The fuel poverty datasets combine data from two consecutive financial years. Full information on the EHS survey is available at the <a title="MHCLG EHS" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/english-housing-survey">MHCLG EHS</a> website and further information on Fuel Poverty and the EHS can be sought from <a href="mailto:[e-mail]">[e-mail]</a> and <a href="mailto:[e-mail]">[e-mail]</a> respectively. Guidance on use of EHS data provided by MHCLG should also be applied to the fuel poverty dataset.<br></p><p>Further information may be found in the <a title="Annual Fuel Poverty Statistics Report: 2020" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/fuel-poverty-statistics">Annual Fuel Poverty Statistics Report: 2020 (2018 Data)</a> on the gov.uk website.<br></p> </span></div> The <i>English Housing Survey</i> (EHS) is a continuous national survey commissioned by the Ministry of Housing, Community and Local Government (MHCLG) that collects information about people's housing circumstances and the condition and energy efficiency of housing in England. The EHS brings together two previous survey series into a single fieldwork operation: the <i>English House Condition Survey</i> (EHCS) (available from the UK Data Archive under GN 33158) and the <i>Survey of English Housing</i> (SEH) (available under GN 33277). The EHS covers all housing tenures and provides valuable information and evidence to inform the development and monitoring of the department's housing policies. Results from the survey are also used by a wide range of other users including other government departments, local authorities, housing associations, landlords, academics, construction industry professionals, consultants, and the general public.<br> <br> The EHS has a complex multi-stage methodology consisting of two main elements; an initial interview survey of around 12,000 households and a follow-up physical inspection. Some further elements are also periodically included in or derived from the EHS: for 2008 and 2009, a desk-based market valuation was conducted of a sub-sample of 8,000 dwellings (including vacant ones), but this was not carried out from 2010 onwards. A periodic follow-up survey of private landlords and agents (the <i>Private Landlords Survey</i> (PLS)) is conducted using information from the EHS interview survey. Fuel Poverty datasets are also available from 2003, created by the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC).<br> <br> The EHS interview survey sample formed part of the Integrated Household Survey (IHS) (available from the Archive under GN 33420) from April 2008 to April 2011. During this period the core questions from the IHS formed part of the EHS questionnaire.<br> <br> <I>End User Licence and Special Licence Versions:</I><br> From 2014 data onwards, the End User Licence (EUL) versions of the EHS will only include derived variables. In addition the number of variables on the new EUL datasets has been reduced and disclosure control increased on certain remaining variables. New Special Licence versions of the EHS will be deposited later in the year, which will be of a similar nature to previous EHS EUL datasets and will include derived and raw datasets.<br> <br> Further information about the EHS and the latest news, reports and tables can be found on the GOV.UK <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-communities-and-local-government/series/english-housing-survey" title ="English Housing Survey (EHS)" target="_blank">English Housing Survey </a> web pages.<br>

《燃料贫困数据集》（Fuel Poverty Dataset）

本燃料贫困数据集源自英格兰住房调查（English Housing Survey, EHS）中的燃料贫困相关变量，以及若干常用于燃料贫困报告的EHS变量。英格兰住房调查的实地调查于每个财政年度（4月至次年3月）开展。燃料贫困数据集整合了两个连续财政年度的调查数据。关于EHS的完整信息可访问MHCLG EHS官网（https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/english-housing-survey），如需了解燃料贫困及EHS的更多详情，可分别致邮[e-mail]与[e-mail]。MHCLG提供的EHS数据使用指南同样适用于本燃料贫困数据集。
更多信息可参阅gov.uk官网发布的《2020年度燃料贫困统计报告（2018年数据）》（Annual Fuel Poverty Statistics Report: 2020 (2018 Data)）。

《英格兰住房调查》（English Housing Survey, EHS）是由英国住房、社区与地方政府部（Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, MHCLG）委托开展的持续性全国性调查，旨在收集英格兰地区民众的住房状况、住房条件与能源效率相关信息。EHS整合了此前两个独立的调查系列，合并为统一的实地调查项目：分别为《英格兰住房状况调查》（English House Condition Survey, EHCS，可从英国数据档案馆获取，编号GN 33158）与《英格兰住房调查》（Survey of English Housing, SEH，可从英国数据档案馆获取，编号GN 33277）。EHS覆盖所有住房保有类型，可为该部门住房政策的制定与监测提供有价值的信息与佐证。该调查的结果还被广泛应用于其他场景，包括其他政府部门、地方当局、住房协会、房东、学术界人士、建筑行业从业者、咨询顾问以及普通民众。

EHS采用复杂的多阶段调查方法，包含两大核心模块：针对约12000户家庭的初始访谈调查，以及后续的实地物理查验。此外，部分额外模块会定期加入EHS或从EHS衍生而来：2008年与2009年，针对8000套住房（含空置住房）的子样本开展了桌面市场估值工作，但2010年起取消了该模块。另有一项针对私人房东与中介的周期性跟踪调查——《私人房东调查》（Private Landlords Survey, PLS），其数据源自EHS的访谈调查结果。自2003年起，还可获取由能源和气候变化部（Department for Energy and Climate Change, DECC）创建的燃料贫困数据集。

2008年4月至2011年4月期间，EHS的访谈调查样本纳入了综合家庭调查（Integrated Household Survey, IHS，可从英国数据档案馆获取，编号GN 33420），此阶段EHS问卷包含了IHS的核心问题。

最终用户许可与特殊许可版本：
自2014年起的EHS数据，其最终用户许可（End User Licence, EUL）版本仅包含衍生变量。此外，新版EUL数据集的变量数量有所缩减，部分保留变量的披露控制措施也有所加强。新版特殊许可版本的EHS数据集将于本年度晚些时候归档，其性质与此前的EHS EUL数据集类似，将包含衍生数据集与原始数据集。
