The Volta River Authority (VRA) has unveiled plans to renovate the 160-megawatt Kpong Dam and its spillway gates in Akuse, Eastern Region.
This marks the dam's first major rehabilitation since its construction 40 years ago.
The announcement came during a stakeholder engagement meeting with chiefs, assembly members, and community leaders from Akuse, Torgome, Fodzoku, Natriku, and surrounding areas.
The meeting provided an opportunity to address community concerns and discuss measures to manage both the positive and potential adverse effects of the renovation.
