There’ll be systematic power outages in May – Energy Minister

Ghanaians would have to to brace up themselves for more power outages in May 2021.

According to the Minister of Energy, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, there will be erratic power supply in May due to the ongoing upgrade of the Kasoa and Pokuase substations.

Speaking at a forum in Accra on Thursday, April 8, 2021, the Minister said his outfit is currently engaging the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo), and the Electricity Company of Ghana, (ECG) to strategize ahead of the expected outages.

Ghanaians have in the past few months been experiencing intermittent power outages, sparking fears that the country may be returning to the days of unstable power supply popularly known as ‘dumsor.’
