The Member of Parliament (MP) for Manso Nkwanta, Mr Tweneboa Kodua Fokuo, has called for increased investment in clean energy, particularly solar power, as Ghana marks the International Day on Clean Energy (IDoCE).
January 26 is set aside globally to mark the International Day on Clean Energy, proclaimed by the United Nations, to raise awareness and mobilise action for a just and inclusive transition to renewable energy.
The MP stressed the need to transition from costly and environmentally-harmful fossil fuels to renewable energy to reduce energy costs and protect the planet.
Speaking on the floor of Parliament, Mr Fokuo mentioned that Ghana's reliance on natural gas for energy production was unsustainable due to its high costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
