With this mechanism, we are <strong>correcting delays, closing gaps, and taking a structural step<\/strong> to shield the electrical system from climate risks and future demand,\u201d said the senior official.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mechanism arises, in part, as a response to technical analyses of the sector that show significant non-compliance by a group of marketers with the legal obligation to purchase <strong>between 8% and 10% of their energy from clean sources<\/strong>, a goal established in the National Development Plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new auction becomes a key tool to facilitate and ensure compliance with this mandatory quota, closing the existing gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\"

design of the contracting mechanism, which will function as an auction, seeks to <strong>promote fair, efficient, and stable prices over time<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its implementation aims to <strong>reduce spot market volatility and protect end users<\/strong> from sudden fluctuations in energy prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To achieve this balance, the process will implement an <strong>allocation algorithm<\/strong> that will find the optimal point between the supply of generators and the demand of marketers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is a public policy decision to strengthen the energy matrix, attract responsible investment, and ensure that the transition is orderly, fair, and provides real benefits for users,\u201d said Minister Palma, emphasizing the social and economic nature of the initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-institutional-coordination\">Institutional Coordination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ministry of Mines and Energy will be responsible for implementing this ambitious process, in coordination with the <strong>Colombian Mercantile Exchange<\/strong> (BMC), which was selected through a public tender to act as the mechanism&#8217;s logistics operator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>BMC <\/strong>brings more than four decades of experience in conducting auctions in various sectors of the national economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technical development of the mechanism was supported and advised by the <strong>Inter-American Development Bank<\/strong> (IDB) and the <strong>World Bank<\/strong> (WB), international organizations that have backed the consolidation of a robust, transparent model aligned with global best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-open-public-consultation\">Open Public Consultation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In compliance with the principles of transparency and citizen participation, the <strong>Ministry of Mines and Energy<\/strong> has made the complete draft resolution regulating the mechanism <strong>available<\/strong> to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The document is available for consultation and comments on the ministry&#8217;s official website (<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.minenergia.gov.co\">www.minenergia.gov.co<\/a><\/strong>) or through this <strong><a

trade associations, academics, and industry stakeholders will have the opportunity to submit their comments and contributions until <strong>February 3, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this historic call, <strong>Colombia <\/strong>reaffirms its commitment to building a complementary, resilient, and low-carbon energy matrix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This policy not only seeks to guarantee the country&#8217;s energy security in the face of the challenges of climate variability and growing demand, but also to improve the competitiveness of the Colombian economy and ensure the well-being of all citizens through a stable, clean, and affordable energy service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-medellin-key-andean-hub-for-transition\">Medell\u00edn: Key Andean Hub for

the epicenter of debate and strategic connection for sustainable mobility in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a fundamental part of <strong>Latam Mobility&#8217;s \u201c2026 Tour,\u201d<\/strong> the
