Colombia Renewable Energy Sector Report 2021-2022

In line with global trends, Colombia has been seeking to make its economy greener by developing its renewable energy resources. The country has made great strides in this direction, as more than two thirds of its electricity is from hydropower sources. Colombia relies heavily on hydropower generation; it accounted for 71.9% of the total power generation in 2020, which raises concerns about energy shortages in periods of reduced water supply and high volatility in energy prices. To mitigate these risks, the country has been encouraging the transition towards non-hydro renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar and bioenergy. The outlook is positive, considering that Colombia’s capacity for unconventional renewable generation is good, with favourable geographic and climatic conditions.​
