Abstract

La transición de Colombia debe envolver tecnologías limpias rentables, aumentar el consumo de energía por habitante, adoptar una política de portafolio para desarrollar sus recursos energéticos, proclamar una política de apoyo al desarrollo del gas natural por las dos décadas siguientes, no deteriorar la capacidad productiva de las nuevas adiciones en capital en manufactura y equipos con tecnologías distantes de la frontera comercial en el lado de la demanda, no desmantelar activos que provean servicios esenciales y cuyo reemplazo sería muy costoso por unidad de GEI removida. Además, debe aumentar el fondeo para investigación y desarrollo en energía, estructurar fondos de financiación combinada, innovar en modelos de negocios y de atención de zonas no interconectadas, impulsar el aprovechamiento de la biomasa residual en los entornos rurales, y prepararse para la transición justa en regiones productoras de carbón térmico.******Abstract: Colombia's transition must involve profitable clean technologies, increase energy consumption per inhabitant, adopt a portfolio policy to develop its energy resources, proclaim a policy of support for the development of natural gas for the next two decades, and do not deteriorate the productive capacity of new capital additions in manufacturing and equipment with technologies distant from the commercial frontier on the demand side, do not dismantling assets that provide essential services and whose replacement would be very costly per unit of GHG removed. In addition, it must increase funding for research and development in energy, structure combined financing funds, innovate in business models and care for non-interconnected areas, promote the use of residual biomass in rural environments, and prepare for the just transition in thermal coal producing regions.
