Dumsor will be over in a few days – ECG Board Chair

Herbert Krapa, the Chairman of the governing board of the Electricity Corporation of Ghana (ECG), has assured Ghanaians that the ongoing power crisis will soon be resolved.

He stated that the government has taken sufficient measures to ensure a steady power supply for consumers.

Krapa emphasized the government’s awareness of the challenges Ghanaians are facing and its commitment to addressing them for the people’s benefit.

“As I said earlier today at Kaleo, at the Commissioning of VRA’s 15MW Solar Plant, the Government has put in place immediate measures to ensure the return of uninterrupted supply of power to consumers!

I can, therefore, state that the unfortunate power challenges Ghanaians are facing should be over in the next few days.”

Over the past 7 weeks, power consumers nationwide have been dealing with sporadic power cuts, known locally as “Dumsor.” Amid these challenges, some Ghanaians have called for the Ministry of Energy to release an official timetable to keep consumers informed about power availability.

The event marked the official launch of the second phase of the Kaleo Solar Power Plant, signifying another significant step in Ghana’s journey towards renewable energy.
