India is a country constantly grappling with problems of impeded rural development. Energy, in particular sustainable energy can be seen as key to attain the Sustainable Development Goals set out by the U.N. Integration of rural sectors can be seen as a methodology to broaden the potential achievement of the targetted Sustainable Development Goals. This thesis report aims at providing multi-purpose systems as a result of energy focused integration of sectors for augmenting rural development in India. The main research question of the thesis was ’Having recognized the importance of systems thinking, how can energy focussed Integration of Sectors provide directions to overcome the problem of impeded rural development in India?’. Top-Down knowledge gaps are prevalent in India for such integrative techniques, thus requiring attention to primarily to make integration of sectors a reality in India, thus the thesis has a core around marking out potential barriers which could be faced by such sector integrated techniques to break into the Indian market and policy while discussing the obstacles to implementation of such solutions. Furthermore another important aspect of the thesis lays out some plausible solutions to these barriers and obstacles.
