To comprehensively understand the dynamics of energy poverty we need to look beyond indicators that capture data in a single point in time. A persistence energy poverty indicator is essential cause; it reveals the chronic and recurring nature of energy poverty, enabling policymakers to identify and address long-term structural issues rather than just short-term occurrences. Persistence indicators reveal that a significant higher proportion of individuals experience energy poverty at least once in four years than what we though so far. There are substantial variations in the mag-nitude and trends in persistence of energy poverty across EU as the rates ranged between below 1% and above 20% in differ-ent Member States.
