Operation Keep The Lights On Takes Effect
The Electricity Company of Ghana’s (ECG) “Operation Keep The Lights On” exercise to rake GH¢ 200 million has taken effect.
The exercise with the backing of the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission’s LI (2413) started on January 15, 2025, in all ECG operational areas.
With this, the ECG looks up to increase its revenue to GH¢ 1.4 billion, Graphic reports.
This is a revenue mobilisation exercise targeting all categories of customers in arrears as well as the inspection of all prepaid meters for integrity.
“ECG wishes to state that the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission’s LI (2413) gives us full access to all our installations, therefore customers and the general public are being advised to cooperate with ECG to carry out our mandate,” the company said in a statement issued ahead of the exercise.
“Customers are being reminded that it is a criminal offence to undertake self-reconnection after disconnection,” it added.
During this period, the regional and district offices will operate with a lean staff pool that will provide essential services to customers during this exercise to enable total participation by top management and staff.
The Company will draw the curtain on the revenue collection exercise on Friday, January 31, 2025.
