The Minister for Energy and Green Transition, John Jinapor, has announced a major policy shift requiring all Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) to make budgetary provisions for their electricity consumption.
Speaking during a meeting with the Energy Committee and power sector stakeholders on Thursday, May 15, the Minister said this directive forms part of broader efforts to instill accountability and ensure efficiency in public power consumption. "All MDAs are supposed to pay for their electricity bills.
They have to budget for it.
These include the health sector, education, security agencies, and the presidency," Jinapor stated.
