Energy Territories

Promoting energy self-sufficiency and regional development through the installation of 200 photovoltaic systems.

Summary


Objective

Promote energy autonomy and territorial development through the deployment of 200 × 1 MW photovoltaic systems that reduce electricity costs, improve quality of life, and generate income via surplus energy sales.

Key Goals

  • Deploy 200 photovoltaic farms of 1 MW each by 2026 (total 200 MW)
  • Reduce energy tariffs in vulnerable municipalities
  • Generate commercially viable surpluses sold to the grid
  • Reduce multidimensional and energy poverty
  • Strengthen territorial energy governance

Market Opportunity

  • More than 427 municipalities with unmet basic energy needs
  • High demand concentration in Andean and Caribbean regions due to elevated tariffs
  • Distributed generation market with estimated potential of USD 9.6 billion and 7,424 MWp projected capacity
  • Growing demand in rural areas and regions undergoing productive transition
  • High average solar irradiation in Colombia: 4.5 kWh/m²/day

ESG Considerations

Environmental: Deployment of photovoltaic technology to diversify the energy matrix and combat climate change.

Social: Reduction of multidimensional and energy poverty. Boost to local economic development and improved community quality of life.

Governance: Strengthening of territorial energy governance. Democratization and decentralization of energy access and generation.
