Energy policy priorities shift

An ambitious energy transition programme to reduce fossil fuel dependence and increase the share of non-conventional renewable energies has dominated the country's energy pathway, embracing a shift towards diversifying Colombia's electricity power matrix. Energy policy has largely been driven by climate drivers, and oriented towards prioritising the social and environmental dimensions of energy deployment to address structural inequalities across the country. The aim has been to enable policies and an adequate governance structure framework to empower so-called energy communities. This would at the same time overcome barriers to energy investment development, enhancing resilience and energy security, while unlocking energy's potential to contribute at scale to Colombia's socio-economic success.
