The Minister of Energy and Green Transition, Dr John Abdulai Jinapor, has appealed to the public to bear with the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) as it undertakes extensive upgrade works aimed at improving power reliability across the country.
He explained that although the ongoing interventions may be disruptive in the short term, they are necessary to address long-standing structural challenges in the electricity distribution system.
“We, therefore, appeal to the public to bear with ECG during this period of intensive upgrades,” he said.
According to him, government is implementing a structured programme designed to reduce outages, improve voltage stability, and enhance fault response times across the network.
He noted that the upgrades are also intended to support the integration of additional generation capacity into the national grid as electricity demand continues to rise.
Dr Jinapor added that the temporary inconveniences are part of a broader effort to deliver a more reliable and efficient power system, stressing that the reforms are aimed at strengthening long-term energy security
