Ghana’s grid not the strongest – Jinapor admits as gov’t eyes critical power investments
Energy and Green Transition Minister Dr John Abdulai Jinapor has acknowledged significant weaknesses in Ghana's electricity transmission network, saying urgent and targeted investment is needed to strengthen the grid and improve the reliability of power supply.
He explained that several state-owned enterprises in the energy sector, including the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) and the Volta River Authority (VRA), were placed under financing constraints during the programme.
Speaking on Newsfile on JoyNews, Dr Jinapor said the energy sector requires substantial investment but stressed that government must prioritise projects that address the system's most critical infrastructure gaps.
