The Ghanaian government is actively strategizing and implementing policies and initiatives to exporting electricity to Nigeria.

Mr Hanson Monney, the Head of the Generation and Transmission Unit at the Ministry of Energy in Ghana, disclosed this during his presentation in Lagos on the 2nd Day of the Nigeria Energy Leadership Summit.

Monney stated that Ghana has made effective investments in power generation, enabling the country to export excess electricity to Nigeria and other countries in the West African sub-region.

Ghana sought to achieve “100% universal energy access” and potentially export electricity to Nigeria.

The Ghanaian government was actively pursuing various energy options, including grid energy, mini-grids, and solar-dominated renewable energy.

Ghana has already achieved an impressive 80 per cent to 85 per cent universal energy access within its borders through robust policy formulation and implementation.

The country was working towards scaling up its renewable energy program to achieve universal energy access by 2024.

He said:

We are working on all these things to make sure that the power system of Ghana continues to be as good as it is or even better, and then, maybe, we can be exporting more to our big brothers in Nigeria when the grid is finally settled.

“So, ladies and gentlemen, this is an overview of the Ghana power system and challenges.

“So, now, we are trying to scale our renewable energy access, and that is how we have planned in 2022 to scale up our renewable energy program.”
