Colombia's 2019 renewable energy auction awarded contracts for nine wind and five solar projects. These projects are worth approximately $8 billion and will add 1,365 MW of wind and solar capacity, due to be commissioned by 2022.
Colombia’s geothermal development also enjoys substantial potential along the Pacific ring of fire. In 2023, work is under way on updating the National Energy Plan (PEN) towards 2050, in line with Colombia’s new National Development Plan 2022-2026 (PND) and energy and climate goals towards decarbonisation.
Extensive renewables potential in the La Guajira region should help advance rural electrification and close the energy access gap. Concentrated in the northern regions, which has a 50 gigawatt (GW) offshore wind potential, renewables can also provide the clean energy needed to jump-start Colombia’s hydrogen production.
businesses.4In 2021, Colombia’s total final energy consumption reached 1,319 petajoules (PJ). Fossil fuels accounted for 67% of this total, with oil being the primary energy source (49%), followed by natural gas (11%) and coal (7.1%).5 Electricity, primarily sourced from hydropower, constituted the second-highest consumed en
