The Executive Director of the Africa Center for Energy Policy (ACEP), Ben Boakye, has maintained that the electricity challenges in Ghana should be attributed to inadequate gas to generate power.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He said this while commenting on the letter that the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) wrote to the Minister of Energy, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, highlighting their concerns against the failure of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) to provide the load-shedding management timetable by following the instructions issued by the National System Control Center (NSCC).<\/p>\n

Mr Boakye told journalists that \u201cGRIDCo is aware of the generational gap in the power sector and all other stakeholders are aware of the challenges affecting the sector so the letter to the Energy Minister is to officially take itself out of what is happening in the sector because the gas to generate the power is not enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Akufo-Addo has stopped export of electricity to other countries \u2013 Atta Akyea<\/a><\/p>\n\n

Ben Boakye also expressed concerns about the potential implication the current power challenges will have on the revenue capabilities of the ECG.<\/p>\n

\u201cBurkinabe authorities communicated recently about the power challenges to their people and said they are considering getting a power plant which will be a shoot in our foot,\u201d he told Accra-based Citi FM.<\/p>\n
