But Sales Manager of DENG, Mr Nathaniel Manu, said because of increased interest in solar power prices will come down.Speaking to Joy News, he said people are getting more interested in solar power following the power crisis.Also at the offices of Deng was Rita Ofori-Tackie, a teacher at Accra sub-metro.
