The document summarizes a presentation given at a conference on narrative continuities and changes. It discusses an ongoing UK research project called "Energy Biographies" that is using narrative methods to study community led energy demand reduction initiatives. The project aims to better understand dynamics of energy use and transitions to more sustainable futures through in-depth interviews about people's everyday energy practices and life experiences over time. Initial findings suggest narrative elicitation can provide insights into how people's energy investments and practices may change or remain stable through life transitions and in response to demand reduction interventions.
