AB - Here, an efficiency analysis for several river mouth systems located on the Caribbean and Pacific coasts from Colombia is presented. Our analysis includes the facility locations used for the energy conversion as well as the points for intake and discharge streams. We also provide the performance of the PRO and RED technologies, and the estimation of the net energy. Accordingly, the feasibility of using plants to convert energy from the salinity gradient in Colombia is evaluated by estimating the technical potential, which includes the selection of suitable locations for the intake and discharge of the streams, the projected capacity of the main technologies for the conversion of the salinity gradient, as well as the estimation of energy consumption during the process, which determines the efficiency of the conversion for each river mouth system.
