N2  - The objective of this study was to examine the state-level association between household energy insecurity and diabetes prevalence in 2020. We obtained 1) state-level data on household energy characteristics from the 2020 Residential Energy Consumption Survey and 2) diagnosed diabetes prevalence from the US Diabetes Surveillance System. We found states with a higher percentage of household energy insecurity had greater diabetes prevalence compared with states with lower percentages of energy insecurity. Interventions related to energy assistance may help reduce household energy insecurity, mitigate the risk of diabetes-related complications, and alleviate some of the burden of diabetes management during extreme temperatures.
