Finally, the Institute for Energy Security's Executive Director, Nana Amoasi VII, ruled that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) did not inherit Dumsor.
Nana Amoasi VII asserts that the NPP instead inherited a better mechanism for generating electricity.
In his most recent SONA, former President Akufo-Addo declared in a strong manner that he would be leaving the government office with the lights on.
Dumsor was a problem in the country that Akufo-Addo claimed to have inherited.
According to a remark from the Institute for Energy Security's Executive Director, "They (NPP) did not inherit "dumsor"; instead, they inherited an improved power generation system," according to Starr FM.
To prevent impending dumsor, the John Mahama administration, according to GRIDCo reports, needs to spend $89.90 million to buy liquid gasoline.
Funds are needed to buy liquid fuel to run thermal facilities in Tema in order to meet the nation's increasing need for power, according to a study from the Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo).
Ghana's natural gas supplier, the West Africa Gas Pipeline Company (WAPco), has disclosed that it will be out of commission for about a month due to pigging, a significant repair operation.
The Akufo-Addo administration delayed the repair of the gas pipelines from Nigeria to Ghana by WAGP from October 2024 to January 2025, according to a statement released by Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo).
