Energy poverty

As part of its efforts to combat energy poverty, the AMB has a Metropolitan Plan to Support Municipal Social Policies 2020-2023. Under the Vulnerable Households programme, it provides financial support for municipal actions geared towards delivering an effective response for people unable to pay for their energy and water utilities, conducting audits and equipping users with the tools they need to cut their utility bills and cope with housing emergency.
