    Análisis de prefactibilidad de un sistema de generación de energía a partir de biogás en un relleno sanitario del Atlántico
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Fonseca Mazo, William Andrés; Gómez Salazar, Elkin Arcesio
    This study evaluates the technical, economic, legal, environmental, and financial feasibility of an electric power generation project based on the utilization of biogas produced at the Los Pocitos landfill, located in the Department of Atlántico, Colombia. The project aims to contribute to the national energy transition by valorizing municipal solid waste (MSW), promoting the replacement of fossil fuels with firm, dispatchable, and low-impact renewable energy sources. From a technical standpoint, the analysis confirms that the landfill presents optimal conditions in terms of location, biogas availability, and a projected installed capacity of up to 5 MW, sufficient to ensure stable and continuous operation. The market assessment reveals sustained growth in electricity demand in Colombia’s Caribbean region—averaging 3.9% annually—which creates favorable conditions for long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) at average prices of COP 310/kWh, thereby reducing exposure to spot market volatility. In legal and regulatory terms, the project aligns with Colombian Laws 142, 143, 1715, and 2099, as well as with the guidelines issued by the Energy and Gas Regulation Commission (CREG) and the Mining and Energy Planning Unit (UPME). This ensures compliance with national energy policy and eligibility for tax incentives granted to Non-Conventional Renewable Energy Sources (FNCER). Environmentally, the plant will reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and support Colombia’s commitments under the Paris Agreement and COP26. It incorporates an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) focused on emission mitigation, noise control, and responsible waste handling. Financial analysis demonstrates the project’s profitability, with an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 12.81%, exceeding the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) of 12.24%, and a positive Net Present Value (NPV) of COP 37,567 million, confirming its economic viability. The Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR) of 1.94 reinforces the project’s capacity to generate value over investment, maintaining stable cash flows over a 30-year horizon. Risk analysis further indicates strong resilience: even under adverse conditions, the NPV remains positive, while key risks—such as generator overhauls and the availability of skilled labor—can be mitigated through predictive maintenance, workforce training, and spare-parts management strategies. Overall, the findings confirm that the project is technically feasible, environmentally sustainable, and financially sound, contributing meaningfully to Colombia’s national goals for energy transition, integrated waste management, and climate change mitigation.

    Nuevos instrumentos de financiación para la construcción de vivienda y otros destinos
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Figueredo Salinas, Nicolás; Hernández Taba, Carlos Mario; Lotero Pérez, Julián; Durango Gutiérrez, María Patricia
    This paper examines the urgent need to diversify funding sources for housing projects in Colombia, given the growing housing deficit and the sustained increase in households living under rental conditions. In a context where over 40% of households are renters and builder’s credit remains the dominant financing mechanism, the need to explore alternative financial schemes that reflect evolving dynamics in the real estate market becomes increasingly evident. Drawing on regulatory, sectoral, and financial analyses, the study identifies and evaluates instruments such as private equity, private debt, leasing, crowdfunding, public-private partnerships (PPPs), collective investment trusts, and the tokenization of real estate assets. It also highlights the Build-to-Rent (BtR) model as a viable strategy for expanding the supply of long-term rental housing particularly for middle-income segments. Finally, the paper proposes a roadmap with specific recommendations for Camacol, aimed at fostering strategic alliances, advocating feasible regulatory reforms through the guild’s channels, and consolidating pilot projects that demonstrate how these alternative mechanisms can serve as sustainable drivers of housing development.
