Localised Power Outages
The Minister acknowledged that certain areas, particularly Accra and Kumasi, have experienced frequent power outages.
“These outages are due to operational challenges within the system and not because of insufficient power generation,” he explained.
He stressed that these issues are technical and operational, not linked to a shortfall in generation capacity.
Government Actions
Mr. Jinapor has directed relevant agencies to develop and present a clear, time-bound plan to resolve operational challenges and restore a stable electricity supply in the affected areas.
He reiterated the government’s commitment to providing reliable and uninterrupted power for all citizens, assuring the public that measures are being implemented to address the outages promptly.
“We are taking all necessary steps to ensure a stable electricity supply across the country,” the Minister said.
