The Africa Sustainable Energy Centre (ASEC) has lauded the Energy Minister, John Abu Jinapor for his bold initiatives, particularly the decision to privatize the commercial arm of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) within six months.

This move, according to ASEC, aligns with its previous recommendations outlined in its previous press releases in August 2024, September 2024, and January 2025.

ASEC emphasised that the privatization should be limited to the commercial leg of ECG, focusing on revenue mobilization, debt collection, and plugging financial loopholes.

The technical operations of ECG, which Ghana has the expertise to manage efficiently, should remain untouched.
