Ecopetrol acquires 49% stake in two wind projects to boost renewable energy capacity in Colombia.

Ecopetrol has completed the acquisition of a 49% interest in two wind projects, JK1 and JK2, located in La Guajira, Colombia, valued at about USD 25.5 million. These projects have a combined capacity of 259 MW and are expected to generate around 1,100 GWh annually, covering about 12% of Ecopetrol's average energy demand. The acquisition supports Ecopetrol's energy transition strategy by improving cost efficiency, operational reliability, and reducing carbon emissions by approximately 4.3 million tons of CO₂ equivalent. The company is still working to fulfill conditions for acquiring stakes in the remaining four projects in the wind cluster and will update the market accordingly.
