2025 Results
Grupo Energía Bogotá structures its social and environmental investment across five thematic lines:
In 2025, the Group invested COP 70,868 million, benefiting 496,090 people in Colombia, Peru, and Guatemala. The social return on this investment is measured through the SROI, which estimates the social value generated per USD invested in the projects. In 2025, the Group generated USD 1.96 in social value for every USD invested.
Additionally, the Group uses the Obras por Impuestos mechanism, which allows tax obligations to be channeled into high-impact projects in the territories. This mechanism funds social infrastructure in municipalities with critical needs. In 2025, the Group allocated COP 51,795 million in projects under this framework.
Social Impact Measurement
GEB conducted the economic valuation of the social impact of its operations following the international impact accounting principles developed by the International Foundation for Valuing Impacts (IFVI) and the Value Balancing Alliance (VBA). This methodology quantifies the value that business operations create for society across three dimensions, economic, environmental, and social; converting impacts into comparable monetary values. In 2025, the Group generated a total social value of USD $230 million.
Community Engagement
Grupo Energía Bogotá promotes sustainable development and trust in the territories where it operates through transparent and participatory dialogue with communities. By identifying stakeholder groups, enabling accessible communication, and continuously assessing community perceptions, the organization transforms feedback into actions that generate equitable and sustainable benefits for all actors involved.
As part of this commitment, the Group develops initiatives aimed at improving access to and affordability of water and energy services, with a particular focus on vulnerable populations, thereby contributing to the well-being and quality of life of the communities it serves.
