‘Energy debt clearance claim is not true’ – Kwadwo Poku

Speaking at an NPP policy committee press conference on August 5, Mr Poku said the data published by the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) contradicts the Ministry of Finance’s claim that all energy sector indebtedness has been settled.“The figures that have been published by PURC do not sustain the fact that they are clearing all the indebtedness in the energy sector,” Mr Poku said.

Mr Poku also attributed the recent stability in electricity supply partly to favourable weather conditions rather than a complete solution to the country’s energy challenges.
