Investment opportunities in power Generation Solid and well established regulatory framework: Since 1994, 2 reforms (Laws 142 and 143) were implemented aiming primarily to foster the private investment in the sector. This has translated into business opportunities for companies that have specific projects. Resources to enhance the expansions: Colombia has natural resources for power generation: water, coal and the possibility of gas in amounts that allow greater supply than that of the country's demand. An energy deficit starting in year 2022 For the period 2019-2028, an increase of installed capacity is required, with the aim of meeting the criteria for energy reliability. Power demand in Latin America will double between 2008 and 2030 The World Bank forecasts that demand will reach 2,500 TWh by the end of that 2030. This growth implies a need of an additional 239 GW in the region approaching 330GW of installed capacity. International interconnection projects Will increase energy exports to Latin American countries. Interconnection project between Colombia Panama (2018), Andean Electrical Interconnection System between Ecuador-Peru-Chile. 103 Power Generation projects under development Different stages which sum 4,974 MW. 90 Hydraulic projects which sum 3,631 MW, 8 thermal projects equivalent to 858 MW, 4 Eolic projects which estimate to produce 654 MW, and 1 solar with an installed capacity of 19.9 MW

Investment opportunities in Non-Conventional power Generation Development of Non- Conventional power generation projects Geospatial position of Colombia. (Generation of energy from Non-Conventional resources such as: solar, wind, biomass, geothermal and solid waste). Law 1715 of 2014 integrates non-conventional renewable energy to the national energy system. This Law promotes the development and use of non-conventional energy sources (especially those from renewable sources), in the national energy system, establishes the legal framework and instruments for the use of non-conventional energy sources (FNCE for its acronym in Spanish), especially those from renewable sources, and creates tax incentives for the investment in this kind of projects. Non Inteconnected Zones account to 52% of the National Territory The National Interconnected System (NIS) connects 48% of the national territory and covers 97% of the population. The Nonconnected zones (ZNI) account for 52% of the country s area (17 departments and 1,441 municipalities) and 625 thousand people. Currently, these zones produce energy with Diesel.
