ECG Denies Scaling Down of Power Supply
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has debunked reports that electricity supply across the country has been scaled down.
According to the company, the reports are “false”.
“ECG wishes to categorically state that these rumours are totally false and should be ignored. The company is always collaborating with all its power producers and IPPs and the constantly resolving day-to-day issues that arise.”
It also assured that reliable and stable power supply would be ensured.
It was widely reported on Monday that Karpowership Energy, AKSA Energy, and Cenit Energy Limited had decided to scale down their electricity supply.
Citibusiness News reported that Amandi Energy and Karpowership are now completely off the national grid, while AKSA Energy has drastically reduced its load from 370MW to just 58MW with a projected shortfall of approximately 450MW on the grid.
These reports heightened fears of erratic power supply which is already a concern in the country.
