This paper explores the potential of integrating bio-solar technologies into rooftop design as a means to enhance energy efficiency, reduce urban heat islands, and promote green practices within Indian cities. By combining solar energy generation with biodiverse green roofs, this study evaluates the multifaceted benefits of bio-solar integration, including energy savings, improved air quality, and enhanced urban resilience. Through an expert survey conducted among professionals in urban planning, architecture, and renewable energy sectors, insights were gathered on the feasibility, benefits, and potential barriers to implementing bio-solar systems in urban rooftops. The findings indicate that integrating bio-solar solutions can enhance energy efficiency, improve air quality, and contribute to urban biodiversity. This paper advocates for maximizing the adoption of bio-solar technologies as part of sustainable urban planning, providing a framework for policymakers and stakeholders to facilitate their implementation in Indian cities. https://pubs.sciepub.com/ajcea/14/1/2/ajcea-14-1-2.pdf solar energy urban spaces energy efficiency bio-solar integration sustainability policymakers India
