GRID COLOMBIA - “Estudio de factibilidad técnica y económica de soluciones de redes inteligentes para el sector eléctrico colombiano”

DESCRIPTION
The study will address the development of the Colombian electric sector by means of Smart Grid solutions, carrying out:
- Analysis of technical and economic viability of the solutions developed.
- Best practises study for designing the architectures.
- Cost-benefit assessments of the most suitable Smart Grid solutions.
The project, which is a collaborative project between Spanish and Colombian entities, will be supported by:
- National Experts (Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira)
- Expert in Analysis and Planning (AFI)
- External consultant in Analysis and Planning (Eclareon)
- Expert in ICTs (Universidad de Alcalá)
OBJECTIVES
The overall objective of the consultancy is to:
Identify feasible solutions in Smart Grids and Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) with a major potential for their implementation in Colombia, developing a Roadmap for their deployment in the country.
