The Ministry of Energy has rejected claims that Ghana will soon return to the days of sustained power cuts also known as 'Dumsor'. This comes after former Deputy Energy Minister, John Jinapor, and former Power Minister, Kwabena Donkor have both asserted that the country lacked insufficient generation capacity to meet current demand. But the Public Relations Officer of the Ministry, Kwasi Obeng-Fosu speaking in an interview refuted the claims and offered some updates on the sector. These PPAs were signed on ‘Take or Pay’ basis which has become counter-productive to our energy sector financial management efforts” he said. He added that the Ministry will continue to operate an open-door policy that seeks to educate and assure citizens of developments in the energy sector.
