Ítem Análisis de factibilidad de una empresa importadora y distribuidora de equipos svg (static var generator) para la ciudad de bogotá(Universidad Distrital Francisco Jose de Caldas) Molina Torres, Cristian Stevens; Toledo Bueno , Carlos Augusto; Toledo Bueno, Carlos Augusto [0000-0002-6437-092X]Electrical power distribution systems are complex networks that must meet high standards of quality and continuity of supply. To guarantee these objectives, network operators have established strict regulations on energy consumption and quality. However, over time, users have incorporated increasingly sophisticated and complex electrical equipment and systems that generate disturbances in the network. Traditionally, power factor control has been achieved using capacitor banks, but this technology is insufficient to meet the current demands of the electrical system. In response to this need, static var generators (SVGs) have emerged—advanced equipment that allows for more efficient and dynamic power factor correction. Although this technology has already entered the country, its availability is limited, and its implementation has not yet reached the desired level. Therefore, this project aims to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of importing SVG equipment, identifying market conditions, and analyzing the development potential of this business in ColombiaÍtem Viabilidad para la creación de una empresa dedicada a la implementación de sistemas automatizados de recolección de aguas lluvias en viviendas de Bogotá(Universidad Distrital Francisco José De Caldas) Peña Romero, Nicolás Jesús; Arias Castellanos, Heidi Nathalia; Toledo Bueno, Carlos AugustoThe project evaluates the feasibility of creating a business in Bogotá dedicated to the design, commercialization, and installation of automated rainwater harvesting systems in residential homes.

This limits progress assessment, the identification of deviations, and timely decision-making. One study indicates that, while companies have the experience and technical capacity to develop and meet these objectives, there is a significant weakness in the coordination area for project monitoring and control (Rojas, Gaitan, & Huertas, 2024). Additionally, it highlights that project management and execution in Colombia present significant challenges, including improvements in planning, monitoring, and control (Pinzón González, Fajardo Arias, & Leal Coronado, 2019). Within this context, the present project is developed with the purpose of evaluating the feasibility of creating a company dedicated to the development and training of a model for monitoring and controlling progress adapted to civil engineering studies and designs, in order to provide a solution to the problem and address the needs of the sector. The development of the proposal was based on an applied approach, through the development of market, technical, administrative, and financial studies, in order to establish the overall feasibility of the proposalÍtem Propuesta para la implementación de un sistema de autogeneración a pequeña escala utilizando generación solar fotovoltaica para la ALFM en Puerto Leguízamo, Putumayo(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Martinez Castaño, Jhoan Sebastian; Velandia Durán, Edder AlexanderThis research evaluated the technical and financial feasibility of a photovoltaic solar self-generation system for the Logistics Agency of the Armed Forces (ALFM), located in Puerto Leguízamo—an off-grid area highly dependent on diesel. Three scenarios with different levels of solar coverage (100%, 60%, and 30%) were designed and analyzed for an average daily demand of 58 kWh, using photovoltaic systems with installed capacities of 27.0 kWp, 13.5 kWp, and 8.1 kWp, respectively, and lithium LFP battery banks ranging from 24 to 187 kWh. All scenarios considered VAT exemptions on CAPEX and were technically viable (PR > 80%). However, the baseline financial assessment (with a 9% discount rate) indicated initial economic infeasibility for all three cases. Nevertheless, sensitivity analysis showed that with lower battery costs, increased avoided energy tariffs, and 70% CAPEX co-financing, Scenario 1 (100% solar) could achieve an IRR of 58.8%, while Scenario 2 (60% solar) could reach an IRR of 15.43%, with estimated emission reductions ranging from 1.6 to 5.2 tons of CO₂-equivalent per year. It is concluded that although the initial investment poses a challenge, financial viability can be achieved through co-financing mechanisms (such as FENOGE) or power purchase agreements (PPAs), making this an environmentally favorable and strategically beneficial alternative for the institution.Ítem Restaurante de hábitos saludables(Universidad Distrital Francisco Joé de Caldas) Guatavita Cano, Jhon Sebastian; Gómez Gómez , Lina Lucia; Velandia Duran, Edder AlexanderThe degree project sought to evaluate the feasibility of creating a restaurant specialized in healthy menus in a physical location in the Kennedy district in the city of Bogotá D.C.
