CASTILLO, York et al. Role of Non-Conventional Energy Sources in the Colombian electricity sector. Prospect. [online]. 2015, vol.13, n.1, pp.39-51. ISSN 1692-8261. https://doi.org/10.15665/rp.v13i1.358.
This article provides a brief geographic, demographic, economic and political overview of Colombia, a review of the evolution of the electricity sector, information on carbon dioxide emissions, energy policy and strategies for the development of non -conventional renewable energy in the country. It shows in detail the current situation of the electricity sector in Colombia and in a complementary way a prospective analysis of the role of non-conventional energy sources in the country. Information on production, consumption and demand for energy is provided, in environmental aspects indicators emissions of greenhouse gases are presented and finally some aspects of energy policy are presented. High percentage contribution of hydropower generation in the energy matrix, leaving aside the thermal generation with different energy is highlighted. Finally, this paper reviews the different strategies undertaken in the country to enable the development of non-conventional energy sources in Colombia.
