In 2020, Colombia adopted Law 2056 to regulate royalties from the exploitation of non-renewable resources, including the mining sector.

Article 15 of the law declares that mapping activities shall be oriented toward the development of research with the objective of obtaining, complementing or deepening knowledge of the non-renewable resource potential of the soil and subsoil.

Article 22 of the law establishes that the resources collected from royalties must be distributed according to the following divisions:

20% to the departments and municipalities where the non-renewable natural resources are exploited, as well as the municipalities with sea and river ports through which the resources or products are transported.

15% for the poorest municipalities in the country. At least 2 percentage points of these resources will be allocated to projects related to or with an impact on the environment and sustainable development.

34% for regional investment projects of departments, municipalities, and districts.

1% for the conservation of strategic environmental areas and to fund the national fight against deforestation.

10% for investment in science, technology, and innovation, of which a minimum of 2 percentage points will be allocated to research or investment in science, technology, and innovation projects in matters related to or with an impact on the environment and sustainable development.

0.5% for investment projects of the riverside municipalities of the Río Grande de la Magdalena.

2% for the operation, operability, and administration of the system for the control of the exploration and exploitation of the deposits, knowledge and geological mapping of the subsoil, the evaluation, and monitoring of the environmental licensing of the exploration and exploitation projects of non-renewable natural resources and to encourage exploration and production.

1% for the operation of the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Control System.

The remainder will be allocated to savings for pension and savings for investment stabilisation.

In addition, this law mandates that until 2037, 7% of the income of the General System of Royalties will be allocated to finance investment projects for the implementation of the Final Agreement for the Termination of the Conflict and the Construction of a Stable and Lasting Peace, including the financing of projects destined to the reparation of victims.

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
