President Akufo-Addo has reaffirmed his government's commitment to achieving universal electricity access for all households in Ghana by the end of 2024.

This assurance follows the successful connection of over two hundred communities to the national grid, raising the country's current electricity access rate to 88.85%.

To reach this goal, the government aims to connect an additional four hundred communities to the national grid through the Self-Help Electrification Programme (SHEP) and other Turnkey Projects.

In his address to Parliament, the President noted that: “…I am happy to report that we are making admirable progress in the provision of electricity to all parts of the country," he said.

Ghana aims to transition 10% of its energy generation mix to renewable energy sources by the end of 2030. Currently, 3.2% of the country's energy mix is sourced from solar energy, with a solar Photovoltaic panel constructed on the Bui Reservoir and Kaleo.

“The Authority is taking steps to relocate the remaining four (4) units before the end of the year,” the President added.
