Looking for the availability, access, and distribution of energy resources, the concepts of integration and distributed generation “DG” are created, it seeks to generate economic growth and prosperity, and of course, the reduction of pollutants to the environment. Under this scenario, regulatory laws have been implemented worldwide for the incentive, organization, and inclusion of different technologies based on renewable energy. This document contains some of the technologies used for distributed generation and deals with the threats that decrease polluting emissions. In addition, a couple of international cases (Spain and Argentina) are studied from the legal framework and their experience in the introduction of the DG, also seeks to land from these experiences to the Colombian national context located in Law 1517 of 2014, it still has different legal loopholes and is growing. This has allowed the growth of these technologies in our country and allows us to present the different areas with a high potential for electricity generation such as wind and solar energy, for example, in the upper Guajira, in order to present a strategy for implement these DG technologies and contribute to accelerating their implementation, giving security to investors and consumers.
