President John Mahama has hinted that the government will replace the damaged GRIDCo substation at Akosombo that plunged the country into intermittent power darkness following a fire outbreak.
He disclosed that the facility will be upgraded to have a modern control room.
President Mahama added that the inferno, which destroyed the GRIDCo facility, offers Ghana a chance to construct a more advanced centre that will serve not just the current generation but future generations as well.
