Ghana's President orders VRA to halt electricity exports to prioritize domestic power amidst 'dumsor' outages.
Ghana's President Akufo-Addo has ordered the Volta River Authority (VRA) to halt electricity exports to neighboring countries to address the ongoing power outages in Ghana, known as 'dumsor'. President Akufo-Addo's directive aims to prioritize domestic energy requirements over potential profits from exporting electricity. The immediate steps to implement the directive include rerouting electricity generated for export back into the national grid. This move follows recent calls by the Independent Power Generators, Ghana (IPGG) for VRA to halt electricity exports and focus on meeting domestic demands amidst the current power crisis.
