Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has partnered a German firm JVG-Thoma to establish a €14.5 million solar manufacturing factory.

The factory, named Appiah-Karim Company is to ensure efficient production of energy in the country.

It will be established at Ashaiman in the Greater Accra Region to produce solar panels in commercial quantities to enhance the efficient and effective supply of energy in Ghana.

Already, the Ashiaman Municipal Assembly has provided a 3.4 acre land to the Appiah-Karim Company to establish the solar factory, which is expected to take off by the end of February next year.
