Transformación Digital y Energías Renovables: Perspectivas para Mitigar el Cambio Climático en Colombia

Abstract

This article analyzes the relationship between digital transformation and renewable energy in Colombia, and how their integration can contribute to mitigating climate change. Through several stages, it describes the historical advancements in both sectors, the key legislation that has driven their development, and the barriers that persist for effective adoption. The article examines how digital technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain, are optimizing the generation and distribution of renewable energy in the country, improving efficiency and real-time management of energy resources. The results are divided into sections covering the history of digital transformation and renewable energy in Colombia, the evolution of laws and regulations, technological implementation in key economic sectors, and the challenges the country faces, such as insufficient infrastructure and lack of funding. The synergy between both sectors is highlighted, along with their potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainable development in Colombia. Finally, the digital transformation process is emphasized as a key tool for climate change mitigation.
