The objective of the NAMA is to modernize public lighting.
Activities: (2016 - 2026)
The use of electricity for public lighting in Colombia is approximately 2.7% of electricity consumption in the country, representing 1,407 GWh / year and the annual emission of 526,587 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e). This energy costs about 145.6 million dollars a year. Colombia has approximately 1,400,000 streetlights, of which 610,000 are under concession contracts. Most of these lights are sodium vapor technology of high pressure.
The NAMA will lay the necessary methodological bases to structure and implement comprehensive financing and modernization programs of public lighting systems.
The NAMA considers four components, each of which seeks the development of tools to address the risks of technology and performance, as well as risks that can meet the energy service companies:
- Technical assistance and legal mechanisms
- Financial mechanism
- MRV
- Capacity building and communication mechanisms

Co-benefits:
| Social: |
* increased security in public space
|
|
| Economic: |
* reduced costs of recycling of light bulbs and luminaires
|
|
| Environmental: | * reduced solid waste |
MRV Framework:
Indicators include:
- Number of cities or municipalities intervened
- Amount of luminaires replaced / base amount of luminaries to change (month to month cumulative)
- Amount of luminaires properly disposed / amount of luminaires replaced
- Public lighting system end coverage / initial coverage of the public lighting system.
- Current amount of luminaires per 1000 inhabitants / initial amount of luminaires per 1000 inhabitants
- Public lighting last month consumption (kWh / month) / base monthly average consumption of the public lighting system (kWh / month)
- Current Unit Cost ($ / kWh) of energy versus base Unit Cost ($ / kWh) of energy
- Amount of complaints during current period / amount of complaints during last year
- Amount of jobs created / base amount of jobs to be created
- Current amount of street robberies per month / amount of street robberies in the same month of the last year
- Amount of traffic accidents at night (with new lighting period) / amount of traffic accidents at night (base period)
