According to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) will soon issue an outage timetable ahead of the reduction of total power supply for distribution by the power distributing company.
This comes on the heels of the maintenance works being undertaken by the Ghana National Gas Company (GNGC) at the Atuabo Gas Processing Plant (GPP), which have affected gas supply for power generation.
A statement co-signed by the Corporate Communications Manager of GRIDCo, Dzifa Bampoe, and ECG’s Director of Communications, William Boateng, on Thursday, March 30, 2023, said: "Consequently, there will be approximately 150 megawatts of power generation shortfall."
It indicated that "This will reduce the total power supply for distribution by ECG until Friday, April 7, 2023."
Hence, "there will be minimal interruption in power supply to some ECG customers."
"ECG will, therefore, issue an outage timetable by Friday, March 31st, to inform customers accordingly. "GRIDCo and ECG regret the inconvenience caused," the statement added.
