Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) will begin publishing power outage schedules at shorter, more frequent intervals as ongoing restoration works at the Akosombo Hydroelectric Plant continue to shift rapidly, Energy and Green Transition Minister John Abdulai Jinapor has announced. According to Mr Jinapor, the evolving nature of repairs at Akosombo has made it difficult to maintain the usual long-term load-shedding timetable, as generation levels change within hours depending on work progress and system recovery.
