3 FAQs about Colombian energy storage grid frequency regulation

What is Colombia's power system like?

Colombia's power system is characterised by large installed capacity for hydropower (70% of total capacity), mostly from plants with significant reservoir capacity. VRE generation capacity, below 1% in 2017, would reach 17% by 2030 under the revised energy plan (UPME, 2018). Additional biomass power by 2030 would account for 3% of capacity.

Could pumped hydro storage boost energy flexibility in Colombia?

12.5 GW (6.2 gigawatt-hours, GWh) of energy storage, mostly in the GCM and Cordoba Sucre areas where most of the VRE is deployed. In Colombia's case, pumped hydro storage could be the most suitable option to boost flexibility in the existing system.

Will Colombia have enough hydropower in 2030?

In 2030 the VRE installed capacity will grow to 17%; however, Colombia will still have enough flexibility – even in dry years with limited hydropower generation – thanks to plans to greatly expand transmission capacity and to add another 2.4 GW of hydropower capacity (Ituango project) on top of the large hydro resources already in the system.
