The restoration of power distribution redundancies is the reason behind the recent blackouts in the Ashanti Region, according to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG).
In the last few days, there have been sporadic power outages throughout parts of the region, leaving some places in complete darkness for almost 12 hours.
Certain livelihoods and businesses are suffering as a result of this situation.
However, the nation is not returning to load shedding, according to the ECG’s Ashanti South Business Unit.
However, Ing. Fredrick Kwabena Bediako, the general manager of Ashanti South ECG, asserts that the problems are internal and unrelated to GRIDCO or their power generators.
These problems are not related to generational gaps or GRIDCO. He pointed to the internal ECG problems and said, “They are being addressed appropriately.
According to the company, steps are being taken to guarantee steady electricity supply.
It will take time, though.
“It is an unpleasant situation but cable faults do happen. Even heat can cause all these things and most of these cables must have joints that must be prepared.
“We may come back to the way forward and see how best we can solve the situation,” Mr Bediako stated.
