The Minority Members on the Energy Committee of Parliament have vowed to resist any further increases in electricity tariffs unless the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) significantly improves its service delivery.
According to the caucus, despite a recent 14.75% tariff increment, ECG has failed to address persistent commercial losses-an issue they say is central to the company's underperformance and its ballooning debt of GH¢67 billion owed to power producers.
The concerns were raised during a meeting between the Parliamentary Energy Committee and key stakeholders in the power sector.
George Kwame Aboagye, Ranking Member of the Committee, issued a strong warning to ECG, urging immediate reforms to enhance operational efficiency and financial accountability. "We said we would not accept or agree to a new tariff, and we stand by that.
