According to citiNewsroom, the Service of Energy has assured Ghanaians that there will be no blackouts, despite the country's $379 million due to Karpowership, a Turkish energy company that plays a significant role in Ghana's power age.
In response to public concerns about potential power disruptions, the Service stated: "We'll guarantee continuous power supply." This announcement comes amid growing concern about the financial load on the power sector and its potential impact on organizations, businesses, schools, and daily life.
Karpowership operates the Aboadze power barge, a critical component of Ghana's energy infrastructure. Nonetheless, the rising debt has raised serious concerns about the association's management. Many people are concerned that continued installment deferrals would eventually result in power outages.
Despite these concerns, the government has yet to identify a specific repayment method. In any case, officials urge that talks continue in order to ensure that the electricity supply remains reliable.
