As of 2023, Colombia's renewable electricity generation capacity was 14.3 GW. Most of this capacity is . is growing fast, and in 2023 accounted for about 5% of the renewable capacity, up from almost zero five years earlier. The country has significant wind and solar resources that remain largely unexploited. According to a study by the World Bank’s (ESMAP), exploiting the country’s significant wind pot. The country’s 2023 Renewable Energy Integration Investment Plan aims to make Colombia’s energy system more resilient, increase its solar and wind capacity, and expand energy access to rural communities by giving them active roles in the country’s energy market.
