On the third day of COP 16<\/strong>, the Minister of Transportation, Mar\u00eda Constanza Garc\u00eda Alicastro<\/strong>, announced the signing of an agreement to begin the transition to electric taxis<\/strong> in the special district of Santiago de Cali<\/strong> and in the municipalities of Palmira<\/strong>, Yumbo<\/strong>, and Jamund\u00ed<\/strong>, which are part of the Regional Transport Authority<\/strong> of the department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese projects are very important because they will allow the transport sector to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and are in line with the discussions taking place at COP 16<\/strong>,” stated Minister Garc\u00eda Alicastro<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have a commitment to reduce CO2 emissions<\/strong>. In that sense, and through the Technological Advancement Fund<\/strong>, we have set a goal of reducing 5.6 million tons<\/strong>, which involves the replacement of the vehicle fleet<\/strong>,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colombia Towards Massive Electrification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The goal of this initiative is for drivers to access resources to modernize their vehicles to zero-emission technologies<\/strong>, under two key conditions: the replacement will be done on a one-to-one basis, meaning that for every combustion vehicle taken out of circulation, one electric vehicle will be introduced. This guarantees that the vehicle fleet<\/strong> will not increase in size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The next step involves the characterization of taxi owners<\/strong>, while starting a dialogue with various key stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These include vehicle manufacturers<\/strong>, energy marketers<\/strong>, and infrastructure producers<\/strong>, who will play a fundamental role in supporting and developing the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, investments in vehicles are expected to exceed $35.5 billion<\/strong> over a horizon extending to 2030<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding the process of contracting the fiduciary society that will establish the autonomous heritage and financially manage the resources, the bidding process was initiated on October 11<\/strong>, which is projected to be awarded in the second half of November<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
