Project scope and objective
The project aims to support the decarbonization and transformation of Colombia’s energy matrix through the generation of renewable energy, contributing to the country’s transition toward cleaner and more sustainable sources.
The financing would cover the construction and operation of: (i) the JK1 and JK2 wind farms, with a combined installed capacity of 259 MW; (ii) their internal transmission lines and related civil works, including access roads; and (iii) a substation. The project is being developed by AES Colombia in partnership with Ecopetrol S.A. The wind farms would be connected to the Colombian Electric System via the Colectora 1 Substation, which is part of the UPME 06-2017 Colectora – Cuestecitas – La Loma project.

Early disclosure
For projects with high environmental or social risk an Environmental and Social Strategy (ESS) is prepared early on during the project appraisal and prior to carrying out the environmental and social due diligence (ESDD). The ESS includes the initial E&S risk categorization and a brief description of potential Performance Standards applicable to the project. The ESS for this project is available below. Together with the ESS, IDB Invest also provides access to the client’s preliminary E&S documents that will be reviewed during the ESDD. The client E&S documents for this project can be found under the “CLIENT FILES” section below. Once the environmental and social due diligence is completed, an Environmental and Social Review Summary (ESRS) for the Project will be published on this page.
