This is the best summary I could come up with:

More than 2 million people across the UK will be cut off from their gas and electricity this winter because they cannot afford to top up their prepayment meters, according to Citizens Advice.

About 800,000 people went more than 24 hours without gas and electricity, unable to make a hot meal or take a warm shower, because they could not afford to top up.

Dame Clare Moriarty, the chief executive of Citizens Advice, said: “Our frontline advisers are helping more people than ever who can’t pay their energy bill.

Record numbers are in debt to their supplier and millions with a prepayment meter are too often going without heating and hot meals because they can’t afford to top up.”

Citizens Advice has predicted that the crisis will worsen in the coldest months of this year, just as some suppliers have been allowed to restart forcible installations of prepayment meters.

“The government has not provided new energy bill support for those in need and has run out of time to develop the long-term approach it promised by April 2024.
