Highlights
- The country targets to cut GHG emissions by at least 52% in 2030 compared to a BAU scenario.
- Three companies hold 60% of the power capacity.
- The public company Ecopetrol dominates the oil and gas sectors.
- Two companies, Drummond and Cerrejón, account for almost 90% of the coal production.
- Hydroelectricity accounted for 72% of the power mix in 2022.
- Oil production slightly increased in 2022 (3%) for the first time after the pandemic (-12% in 2020)
- Coal exports have decreased by 40% since 2017.
- The prices of electricity vary according to the regions. They have been largely stable since 2016.
- Total energy consumption increased by 4% in 2022.
- Oil dominates the energy mix (47%) with an increasing share (+10 points since 2010).
- The residential sector is the largest electricity consumer.
- The National Energy Plan 2022-2050 foresees 19 GW of non-conventional renewable capacity by 2050.
- A second LNG regasification terminal is planned.
Institutions & Energy Policy
The energy sector is under the responsibility of the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME). UPME (Mining and Energy Planning Unit) is a special administrative unit of MME in charge of coordinating the planning of the sector.
Energy Supply
Oil:
In 2022, oil production slightly increased by 3% to 40 Mt, following a decreasing trend since a peak of 52 Mt in 2015 (-4.7%/year).
Energy Prices
Electricity:
The prices of electricity vary according to the regions. In 2022, they reached US$16.3c/kWh for the industrial sector and US$16.4c/kWh for households.

Energy Consumption
Per capita consumption is around 0.85 toe, including 1 400 kWh of electricity (2022).
Total energy consumption increased by 2.4% in 2022 to 44.2 Mtoe, after a 6.4% drop in 2020 and a recovery by 7.7% in 2021. Previously, it had fluctuated around 39-44 Mtoe between 2015 and 2019.

Issues & Prospects
According to the National Energy Plan 2020-2050, energy demand will increase by 21% to 28% by 2050, with electricity and gas consumption increasing faster than oil consumption. Most of the electricity consumption rise will be linked to an increasing use of wind and solar technologies.
