This edited collection critically engages with an important but
rarely-asked question: what is energy for? This starting point
foregrounds the diverse social processes implicated in the making
of energy demand and how these change over time to shape the past
patterns, present dynamics and future trajectories of energy use.
Through a series of innovative case studies, the book explores how
energy demand is embedded in shared practices and activities within
society, such as going to music festivals, cooking food, travelling
for business or leisure and working in hospitals. Demanding Energy
investigates the dynamics of energy demand in organisations and
everyday life, and demonstrates how an understanding of spatiality
and temporality is crucial for grasping the relationship between
energy demand and everyday practices. This collection will be of
interest to researchers and students in the fields of energy,
climate change, transport, sustainability and sociologies and
geographies of consumption and environment. Chapters 1 and 15 of
this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 license at
