  abstract = {{I}ndia is facing two major transitions. {I}n 2040, its energy demand will double while 800 million {I}ndians will live in cities by 2050. {S}ituated at this intersection, this article contributes to the field of urban energy research by looking at {S}olar {R}ooftop {S}ystems ({SRS}) in a district located in the extended periphery of {D}elhi. {U}sing a multi-pronged qualitative methodology in a corridor made of villages and small towns, we argue that public policies are framed applying a rigid territorial grid opposing urban and rural, ignoring the motivations of both residential and professional users, which are not bounded by the rural/urban binary. {T}his disjunction explains that renewable energy does not lead to a new imagination of urban and energy systems. {T}hese two fields remain disconnected while solar energy fuels consumption and the city expansion in its peripheries. {F}inally, the observed variegated urban energy landscapes ({UEL}) embody a land and energy intensive form of urban growth.},
