NoWe seek innovative research proposals that could bring significant advances in the field of agrivoltaics from an open and broad perspective.Keep in mind that supervisors are not allowed to get involved in the project proposal preparation.ContextAgrivoltaics, the technology that allows dual land production (agricultural and energy) by means of integrating photovoltaic structures into different crops, is a growing field that is attracting increasing attention worldwide. It raises important regulatory, engineering, environmental, and social questions that are central to its future large-scale implementation.The problem to addressAgrivoltaics is a technology facing impressive growth in the last ten years. Its partial reliance on mature technology such as photovoltaics has enabled rapid implementation, including commercial-scale installations that now coexist with research pilot sites. However, development paces remain uneven: agricultural and photovoltaic timeframes differ substantially, and further insights are desirable to assess the influence over crops on a larger scale. Regulatory frameworks are evolving in an uneven and uncoordinated manner, and their implications for agrivoltaics remain insufficiently understood. Social perception also varies across regions and is not yet fully understood, while economic and environmental impacts require deeper assessment.To unlock t
