Publicación Evaluación de la efectividad del Pago por Servicios Ambientales (PSA) en el proyecto Oriente BancO2(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Palacio Santamaría, Andrés Felipe; Velásquez Chavarriaga, Andrea; Álvarez Gómez, Óscar Antonio; Restrepo Mesa, María del PilarPayment for Ecosystem Services (PES) schemes have positioned themselves globally as key instruments for climate mitigation and rural development; however, existing literature questions their actual capacity to generate social value beyond monetary transfers and their long-term financial sustainability. This study evaluates the effectiveness and socio-environmental impact of the "Sustainable Forest Management under the BancO2 scheme" project in Eastern Antioquia (2017–2024). A mixed-methods research design was employed, integrating the Systematization of Experiences with 80 families, interviews with institutional stakeholders, and the calculation of the Social Return on Investment (SROI). The results reveal an SROI ratio of 2.22:1, indicating high added value creation for the region. However, this positive balance rests upon a phenomenon of "Subsidized Efficiency": environmental success (conservation of an average of 104.6 ha per family) coexists with structural fragilities, such as a gender gap in productive income (8.5:1), an aging social base (average age 57.8 years), and an evident incentive decoupling, where 100% of participants conserve driven by ethical commitment despite the erosion of the payment’s purchasing power. It is concluded that the model is effective not as a market transaction, but as a "Custodianship Rent" that validates the peasant role. To guarantee future sustainability, it is imperative to transition from welfare-based transfers to investment in territorial capabilities that strengthen economic autonomy and ensure generational renewal.Publicación Gobernanza del agua en territorios mineros : construcción y validación de modelo conceptual en contextos de apertura de una mina de oro en Antioquia(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Suárez Ojeda, María José; Palacios Suárez, Yuliana; Hernández Díaz, Paula MarcelaPublicación Uso de energías alternativas en taladros de perforación de pozos de petróleo y gas en Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2026) Orozco Rojas, Diego Hernán; Vargas Rivera, José Orlando; Plaza Castilla, Daniel Arturo; Henao Arango, María CeciliaThe oil industry faces the challenge of advancing toward more efficient and sustainable operations within the context of the global energy transition. Drilling rigs - both onshore and offshore - have high energy demands. Traditionally, these demands have been met by diesel-powered systems, which entail high operating costs and significant carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. For this reason, the integration of renewable energy sources - such as photovoltaic solar systems, wind power, green hydrogen, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and hybrid microgrids - represents a strategic opportunity to reduce diesel consumption, optimize costs, and decrease the environmental footprint without compromising operational reliability. International evidence (Arent et al., enero de 2019; Saber et al., 2019) shows that, in the short and medium term, the most feasible configuration is the renewable-diesel hybrid scheme, which supplies the base load with clean energy and uses diesel generators as backup for peak demand and contingencies. This approach requires analyzing hour-by-hour load profiles, fuel consumption, and the operational conditions of each site. In Colombia, the availability of solar and wind resources, along with incentive policies (Law 1715 of 2014, which regulates the integration of non-conventional renewable energies into the National Energy System) and the interest of key actors such as Ecopetrol and Celsia, create a favorable environment for pilot electrification projects in drilling operations. However, challenges persist: high capital expenditures (CAPEX), payback periods, regulatory complexities, and logistical and environmental considerations, especially in regions such as La Guajira.
