Colombia’s rich wind and solar energy potential is estimated at 30 GW and 32 GW, respectively, according to SER Colombia, which is more than Colombia’s current installed capacity of 18.8 GW. Of particular interest is La Guajira region, with world-class wind resources (average wind speeds of 9.8 m/s) and 18 GW of Colombia’s wind power

Colombia Wind Power 2022 will be the meeting point of a high-level dialogue between the wind energy sector and the new Colombian Administration, a new political stage strongly committed to the decarbonization of the energy sector, which faces the challenge of materializing ongoing investments to ensure the success of projects.
wind in Colombia could also generate numerous economic benefits. Under this roadmap''s high growth development scenario, for example, by 2050 offshore wind could support up to 26,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) jobs and add around US$3 billion to Colombia''s economy per annum. The rapid development of the global offshore wind industry
The roadmap of the future of offshore wind energy in Colombia must be to fulfill three primary objectives identify the best opportunities for harnessing the offshore wind resource, to improve the investment in resources, and to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

opportunities and challenges of offshore wind energy in Barranquilla, Colombia, through both technical and economic aspects. Keywords—Offshore wind energy; techno-economic analysis; wind power density; Weibull distribution; energy storage; Colombia I. INTRODUCTION Renewable energy in Colombia has been increasing at a
Colombia has world-class wind and solar energy potential and recent regulatory updates have enacted a robust framework of incentives. However, as of 2022, solar and wind have an operating installed capacity of just about 1.5% of the capacity mix.
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. Colombia''s geothermal development also enjoys substantial potential along the Pacific ring of fire.
Considering electrification as an alternative promotes the deployment of technologies that use renewable sources, such as wind energy in coastal and offshore areas. In Colombia, wind

The Caribbean region of Colombia is a strategic source of wind energy for Colombia''s economic development. However, current estimates of wind energy potential for this region are based on low-resolution observations from a sparse set of weather stations that falls short of the temporal and spatial scales required by the wind energy sector.
Colombia''s rich wind and solar energy potential is estimated at 30 GW and 32 GW, respectively, according to SER Colombia, which is more than Colombia''s current installed capacity of 18.8 GW. Of particular interest is La Guajira region, with world-class wind resources (average wind speeds of 9.8 m/s) and 18 GW of Colombia''s wind power
Considering electrification as an alternative promotes the deployment of technologies that use renewable sources, such as wind energy in coastal and offshore areas. In Colombia, wind energy alone has an accumulated technical potential of approximately 82 GW, mainly concentrated along the northeastern coast.
Colombia’s rich wind and solar energy potential is estimated at 30 GW and 32 GW, respectively, according to SER Colombia, which is more than Colombia’s current installed capacity of 18.8 GW. Of particular interest is La Guajira region, with world-class wind resources (average wind speeds of 9.8 m/s) and 18 GW of Colombia’s wind power potential.
Economic benefits: The development of offshore wind in Colombia could also generate numerous economic benefits. Under this roadmap’s high growth development scenario, for example, by 2050 offshore wind could support up to 26,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) jobs and add around US$3 billion to Colombia’s economy per annum.
Colombia has some of the best natural conditions for offshore wind in the world and there is already abundant private sector interest in developing projects. Colombia has an opportunity to use this indigenous energy resource as part of the transition to net-zero carbon and to help manage the country’s energy trilemma:
The expected large deployment of wind and solar resources in Colombia can be used to leverage creation of local employment, gender equality and benefits to local communities and Indigenous peoples. This will require strengthened policy frameworks to avoid negative efects on these areas.
Colombia has world-class wind and solar energy potential and recent regulatory updates have enacted a robust framework of incentives. However, as of 2022, solar and wind have an operating installed capacity of just about 1.5% of the capacity mix. The next five years could see a sharp increase in solar and wind capacity.
Energy policy in Colombia is defined by the National Energy Plan (PEN) 2020–2050, which includes solar and wind in its diferent scenarios, including for both grid-connected and unconnected areas. Electricity planning is outlined by the 15-year Generation and Transmission Expansion Plans, which are updated yearly.
