Abstract

MEJIA, Guillermo. A Comparative Study between the Energetic Efficiency Legislation in Colombia and Spain. Rev. esc.adm.neg [online]. 2014, n.77, pp.122-135. ISSN 0120-8160.

The efficiency in the conversion, distribution and use of energy shows a great potential to control the effects of energetic consumption and its impact on worldwide climate changes. The energetic efficiency public policies are implemented through different mechanisms such as prices, regulation and fiscal and economic incentives. This paper focuses on its regulation from the perspective of two countries with different social and economic levels, Spain and Colombia, and it also compares the results of its application, based on energetic intensity. Additionally, recommendations are made for the development of the best policies of efficiency in Colombia.

Keywords : Efficiency energetic; Energy; Legislation; Regulation; Energetic intensity.
