While there is a massive shift towards renewable energy, it is essential to understand the overall impacts that its development brings along. A developing nation like India needs to prioritise clean energy transition, while also ensuring food security without compromise. This is where the concept of Agri-PhotoVoltaics can become of interest to Indian stakeholders. A technology where crops are grown under solar panels, keeping at par the solar efficiency as well as the crop yield. However, before undertaking a technological intervention of this type and scale, it is essential to throughly understand the needs, both intended and unintended consequences, and the final outcome and impact it will have on all relevant stakeholders. This development of a theory of change is significant to understand social impact and feasibility before the formulation of a business model for scaling up Agri PV technology, especially in the Indian context. Further, the inference of study is drawn by identifying potential trade-offs as well as strategies to involve these stakeholder groups.
