What we will do and why
Spotlight is a project focused on leveraging data modelling and machine learning to identify vulnerable customers belonging to Priority Service, Fuel Poor (FP) and Leaving No-one Behind (LNB) categories at a granular level.
Key deliverables
- Model outputs stored in our enterprise data store.
- Recommended engagement mechanisms for vulnerable customers.
Target outcomes
- Increased Priority Service Register (PSR) coverage.
- Better supported Fuel Poor and Leaving No-one Behind customers.
Measures of success
- Percentage of PSR customers onboarded.

Stakeholder Engagement
Held internal workshops with data engineers and analysts to get the required data inputs.
We will test the effectiveness of the recommendations with customers against traditional stakeholder engagement activities such as leafletting and referrals.
