5. Background
Interest of the Government of Colombia tackling
climate change and access international support
Freight Transport in Colombia: 12% of total
emissions, 33% of energy related emissions.
Interested in developing a NAMA on the existing
fleet replacement program for large commercial
vehicles
Learn from the experience of other emerging
economy (Mexico)
Existing project enables support (GIZ – BMU – ICI)

6. Colombia – CurrentSituation
Freight
95% is road based
Fleetaverageage: 22 years
71% trucks are 10+ years old
45% trucks are 20+ years old
Freight transport
37% oil consumption
2.9 Mton of CO2 (2008)

New vehicles need to
replace old ones or pay
a “scrapping fee”

April, 2011)

9. Key Barriers in the Colombian
renovation fleet programs
(Lack of) Institutional capacity at the managing
agencies
Complex process, specially difficult for individual
owners (majority)
Funding depends on new vehicles being added
(“scrapping fee”)
Leakage due to loopholes in regulation and
difficulties in controlling actual scrapping

ColombianRenovationProgram
s
Similar needs – similar problems
Obsolete fleets
Dispersed ownership (one man-one truck/bus)
Poor registry
Key differences
Funding sources: Colombia private, Mexico public
Institutional settings: Colombia separate for trucks
(national) and buses (local); Mexico common federal
program
Supported by

12. LessonsfromMexico
Funding source: Money at front from public
sources
Management through a trust fund; use over
several years
Improved information and registry:
complete database
proof of scrapping
Registry of new vehicles and its usage (to
report actual impacts)
Targeting small owners with appropriate
financial tools

Strategic Public Transportation Systems (SETP)
• Improves public transportation systems in 12 middle-sized cities
(250,000-600,000 inhabitants).
• Includes restructuring local public transportation and fee collection
systems, develop traffic light systems and operation management
systems, revise fee calculation methodology and constructing any
required infrastructure
• Started in 2009 with 7 cities and aprox. 1.1 million USD (76.1% comes
from public funding, the rest from private sources).
• As part of this program, public transport fleets will be reduced since
oversupply has been identified in all cities.

Mass Transportation Systems (Sistemas de Transporte Masivos, STM)
• Mass Transportation Systems are used to organize
transportation in big cities.
o Currently working: Bogotá, Pereira, Cali, Barranquilla,
Bucamaranga
o Under development: Cartagena and Medellín
o Planning stage: Cúcuta
• The implementation of these systems always includes
renovation programs which varies in each city.
o As an example, Bogotá's Transmilenio system had by 2002 taken
out aprox 1,500 vehicles. This number increased to 6,014 by
2009.
