Oportunidades y propuestas para la incorporación de co-beneficios en las subastas de energía renovable en Colombia

This report by the Stockholm Environment Institute identifies opportunities and proposes methods for integrating co-benefits into the design of renewable energy auctions in Colombia to ensure the energy transition is socially legitimate and technically viable.

• The report proposes incorporating co-benefits into several specific components of renewable energy auction design: the structuring of target demand, the introduction of enabling requirements, multi-criteria evaluation schemes, and mechanisms for risk allocation, monitoring, and compliance.
• Co-benefits are defined as additional monetary or non-monetary advantages resulting from an intervention that simultaneously meets multiple objectives. Examples include local job creation and training, economic transfers, the strengthening of territorial productive capacities, and social and gender equity.
• Integrating co-benefits transforms auctions from simple tools of economic efficiency into instruments for public policy goals regarding social, environmental, and economic territorial development. For investors, these co-benefits can mitigate social, territorial, and reputational risks, which may improve project viability and long-term profitability.
