The government has secured 450,000 barrels of fuel to address the country's ongoing power generation challenges and stabilise the electricity supply nationwide.
The delivery, confirmed by the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition on Thursday, is expected to provide immediate relief to recent power challenges that have disrupted the supply of electricity to homes and businesses.
The consignment, which arrived at the Tema Port, will be distributed to power plants experiencing fuel shortages, particularly those operated by independent power producers (IPPs).
The move comes after weeks of erratic power supply, with some areas enduring prolonged outages due to insufficient fuel for thermal plants.
