ECG engages stakeholders affected by nationwide exercise – Authorities.

Charles Nii Ayiku Ayiku, General Manager of External Communications at the ECG says they have begun negotiations with Ghana Water Limited and other stakeholders they have disconnected from the national grid.

The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has disconnected the power supply to the Head Office of Ghana Water Limited (GWCL) due to unpaid electricity bills amounting to approximately GH¢1 billion. According to Energy Minister John Abdulai Jinapor, GWCL has not made any payments for its electricity consumption over the past seven months, resulting in a significant debt.

The disconnection is part of ECG’s efforts to recover millions of cedis in unpaid electricity bills owed by various categories of customers across the country. The company has warned that customers in arrears should settle their bills immediately or face disconnection.

He noted that they aim to recover all debt owed to them.
