The failed NPP government has supervised the near collapse of the energy sector through the mismanagement of critical funds, ineptitude, uncontrolled corruption, nepotism, and state capture.
As a result, the energy sector is engulfed in suffocating debt, declining oil production, and increasing transmission and distribution inefficiencies.
These challenges threaten Ghana’s economy and could plunge the nation back into the dreaded ‘dumsor crisis’ if not addressed.
To fix this, we will:
1. Initiate the LIGHT UP GHANA Project to support the 24- hour Economy by resuming the universal street lighting programme.
2. Promptly resolve all disputes between upstream oil and gas players and the Government of Ghana.
3. Develop and implement a Premix Fuel Management policy involving landing beach committees to ensure equitable and transparent distribution.
4. Apply ESLA for its intended purpose.
5. Implement an energy transition strategy that will augment thermal and hydropower production with nuclear and other renewable energy sources like solar, wind, biogas, wasteto-energy, and other off-grid energy systems, such as minihydropower production (e.g. Juale, Pwalugu and Pra).
