Energy Minister John Jinapor has reiterated that Ghana is not experiencing load shedding and has sufficient electricity generation capacity to meet national demand.
In a Facebook post on Friday, January 30, the Minister said he held a meeting with leadership from key power sector agencies to assess the current state of electricity supply across the country.
Mr Jinapor emphasised that Ghana has gone more than 10 months without load shedding and is not facing any power generation deficit. He acknowledged, however, that parts of 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.
The minister directed relevant agencies to urgently present a clear, time-bound plan to resolve the issues and restore a stable electricity supply in the affected areas.
He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to providing reliable and uninterrupted power for all Ghanaians, assuring the public that measures are being taken to address the challenges as quickly as possible.
