Dumsor is over – ECG assures customers

The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has recently announced that it has achieved a stable national power supply. The announcement, dated March 29, 2024, states that “The Electricity Company of Ghana wishes to inform our valued customers and the general public that we now have a stable national power supply, also known as a stable national grid.”

The power distribution company urged that, “Any customer who is currently experiencing power outage is due to a localised fault. Please call our contact centre on 0302 611611 (also available on WhatsApp) or report on our social media handles (ECGghOfficial) for immediate action to fix the outage and restore power supply.” “We are sorry for the inconvenience, and we wish you a happy Easter,” the ECG said.

Many parts of the country have experienced erratic power supply lately. This has resulted in calls for a load-shedding timetable to enable customers to plan their lives. However, the ECG declined the request saying that the current challenge does not require a load management schedule. Commenting on the situation, the Minister for Energy, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh agreed with the Management of ECG. He is reported to have remarked that, “Ask those who want it (Load-shedding timetable) to bring it.”
