With production plummeting over the past decade, Colombia now imports nearly a third of its natural gas, driving inflation and straining households—especially as droughts threaten hydroelectric power. De la Espriella’s plan? Attract investment, restart drilling, and cautiously pilot fracking in safe zones with strict environmental protections. Success hinges on community buy-in and whether these moves can turn Colombia’s energy crisis into a path to economic independence.
