    GUTA Demands Transparency on Dumsor Causes from ECG

    ECG's attribution of power outages to overload transformers 'not factually  accurate' – PURC | 3News

    “Dumsor,” the intermittent power outages that have plagued Ghana in recent years. The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has issued a statement denying any ongoing load-shedding. Efforts to obtain a load-shedding timetable have yielded no results, as both the ECG and the Minister of Energy, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, insist that the power distributor is not shedding load. Earlier, the ECG attributed the power cuts to overloaded transformers, specifically identifying around 630 of them as the cause. However, the Managing Director of ECG, Samuel Dubik Mahama, clarified that these transformer issues have been addressed.

    However, the Managing Director of ECG, Samuel Dubik Mahama, assured journalists after a meeting with the Mines and Energy Committee of Parliament that these challenges have been addressed. He stated, “The assurance is that we are doing our best. The lights are going to stay on. Most of the transformers that we spoke about, and the intensification exercises, are almost done. So we should just stay positive. There will be a proper statement as to the way forward. We are currently not shedding load.”

    Joseph Obeng (Communications Director, GUTA): “We cannot continue to operate in the dark. Our businesses are suffering due to the unpredictability of power supply. Manufacturers struggle with disrupted production schedules, workforce planning challenges, and inflated operational costs. Traders, shopkeepers, and artisans are all reeling from the adverse effects of these recurring power outages.” However, GUTA remains concerned about the impact on various sectors—agriculture, commerce, and manufacturing. Without a clear timetable for load-shedding, businesses struggle to strategize effectively. Industries reliant on electricity, such as manufacturing plants and IT firms, face delays in production schedules and revenue losses.

    We hope that ECG’s response will shed light on the situation and provide much-needed clarity for businesses across the country. So, despite recent power interruptions, the ECG maintains that Ghana is experiencing a stable national power supply. We’ll continue to monitor this situation closely.
