Creg has not yet defined remuneration for margins in fuel distribution

The Commission for the Regulation of Energy and Gas (Creg) clarified that it has not made any decision on the remuneration of wholesale and retail margins in the distribution of liquid fuels in Colombia. The regulatory process is in the stage of technical analysis and dialogue with sector actors. Several projects have been published for public consultation since 2022.

The Commission for the Regulation of Energy and Gas (Creg), led by Antonio Jiménez Rivera, issued a statement to specify that to date, no regulatory measure has been adopted to set the remuneration for the wholesale or retail margin in the liquid fuels distribution chain in the country. This clarification aims to update on the progress of the process, which remains in the technical analysis and dialogue phase.

Since 2022, the Creg has promoted a participatory approach to strengthen the regulatory study. In that year, project 704 003 was published, followed by 704 002 in 2023, and most recently, 704 009 and 704 010 in 2025. These documents have been made available to the public to gather comments, observations, and technical inputs that enhance the ongoing evaluation.

As part of this process, the entity has held working workshops in several cities, including Bucaramanga, Riohacha, and Bogotá. These sessions have allowed for sharing advancements and receiving contributions from those involved in the fuels sector. The Creg stressed that the procedure is still under construction and deliberation, so there is no official determination on the remuneration components in distribution.

This framework seeks to ensure informed and balanced regulation, incorporating perspectives from relevant actors before any final resolution.

For wholesalers, the maximum margin would be $382.75 per gallon, while for retailers it reaches $1,288.86 per gallon. These adjustments account for investments in infrastructure and operating costs.

The Colombian government has acknowledged a natural gas deficit, requiring imports since last December to meet essential demand. This has led to higher prices for imported gas, passed on to users via tariff hikes. Officials are announcing measures to curb the effects.

Colombia's Ministry of Mines and Energy issued Decree 1428 of 2025 to exclude private, diplomatic, and official vehicles from the diesel subsidy under the Fuel Price Stabilization Fund (FEPC). The move aims to correct distortions in subsidy use and safeguard public finances, with gradual implementation in ten departments. Public transport for cargo and passengers remains exempt to prevent effects on food prices and transportation costs.

Carbon credit-generating companies in Brazil eagerly await the 2026 regulation of the regulated market, which could unlock billions in business by forcing polluters to cut emissions.

Key players like Carbonext and Re.green prepare forestry and energy projects for rising demand.
