The way forward for contracting PPAs has been cleaned for the best, as there is now take-and-pay arrangements, no more government guarantees and no more tax exemptions for PPAs.<br \/>What is fascinating about the current move to keep the lights on is the cap on energy tariff which will be denominated in Ghana Pesewas, as well as a provision of Bank Liquidity support for PPAs.<br \/>What is amazing is the fact that Ghana\u2019s current installed power capacity has improved with additions such that on March 18, 2022, the peak system was 3, 469 Megawatts and available capacity for that same day was 3, 861 Megawatts.<br \/>Upgrading of power lines to reduce losses and increase transmission capacity have been enhanced with the Kumasi-Kintampo section completed and energized to improve the voltages in the Ashanti and Northern regions and that completes the entire 330KV Kumasi-Bolgatanga Transmission line which supports power to Burkina Faso through the existing 225KV interconnection line.<br \/>Presently, there is more Bulk Supply Points (BSPs) leading to improved power supply. The construction of the 580 MVA Pokuase BSP, which is the biggest substation, after whose commissioning has brought remarkable improvement in the reliability of power supply to Pokuase and its environs.<br \/>In addition to that, there is another 435MVA BSP at Kasoa, which is the second largest with a productive capacity of 435MVA and has helped in significant improvement in the reliability of power supply to Kasoa and nearby areas.<br \/>With power distribution, loss reduction strategies have been adopted and notable among them is the Meter Management System (MMS) under which there is harmonisation of several metering systems, remote and early detection of faults and managing all metering systems on common platform and therefore reducing workload and stress of Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) workers.<br \/>There is also the Geographic Information System (GIS) which helps the ECG to attain an accurate asset inventory with electric poles, transformers, cable lines, substations and other electric utility assets.<br \/>With the GIS, ECG is able to analyse its network usage, recognise problems and risks, like power outages, have oversight about energy consumption, find potential threats to the distribution network and, also, manage utility asset repairs.<br \/>To further reduce power losses, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) under which all ECG business processes to facilitate seamless workflow for efficient operations has been rolled out, in addition to ECG Boundary Metering and Distribution Transformer Metering to enhance energy accounting and distribution system loss measurement. Nine operational regions: Accra East, West, Tema, Central, Western, Eastern, Volta, sub-transmissions and Ashanti SBU have been completed under ERP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG-20220425-WA0086-1-1024x668.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG-20220425-WA0086-1-1024x668.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG-20220425-WA0086-1-600x392.jpg 600w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG-20220425-WA0086-1-300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG-20220425-WA0086-1-768x501.jpg 768w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG-20220425-WA0086-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/>Voltage Current and Time (VIT) Smart Technology for optimizing, designing and installation of VIT feeder automation scheme on 33KV and 11 KV distribution feeders to reduce outage time and customer experience is also in place to ensure proper power distribution.<br \/>As part of loss reduction strategies, the ECG Revenue Task Force was re-launched in September 2021 to identify power theft and recover debt across consumers.<br \/>To ensure payment to all players in the value chain to stay financially viable, there is the implementation of the cash waterfall mechanism and natural clearinghouse game plan running.<br \/>There is power commitment on the part of those handling the country\u2019s power sector and that has manifested through the improved grid stability that Ghana is experiencing.<br \/>Grid stability was made possible through the relocation of 250MW Ameri Plant from Takoradi to Kumasi and completion of Gas Pipeline construction to Anwomaso in Kumasi, relocation of 80MW Volta River Authority (VRA) Siemens Thermal Power plant to Kumasi, proposal for combined cycle plant from AKSA (250MV) received and reviewed in addition to KARPOWER (235MV) proposal for Kumasi.<br \/>Tariffs rationalization is being pursued seriously as the Energy ministry is collaborating with the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) to rationalize electricity tariffs to make the methodology transparent and the tariff structure non-punitive.<br \/>Lots of renewable projects have been completed and for solar power generation alone, Meinergy Solar-20MW was completed in 2017, VRA Solar Lawra\/Kaleo-19MW was completed in 2021 and Bui Solar-51MW and others were completed in 2021.<br \/>For off-grid solar generation, there have been generation of some 24.3MW between 2017 and 2021 and 26 micro-grids of 58MW for hospitals in 2017, while the Jubilee House Phase 1 of 550KW was completed.<br \/>Ongoing renewable projects include the scaling-up Renewable Energy Program (SREP) under which some 80MW would be generated.
