  We need to be pumping the gas we have in Ghana into the power plants. When will we learn and try and rely more upon ourselves. There will always be instability with the West African Gas Pipeline BUT we have gas in Ghana too (ENI/sankofa East field for example)! No need to flare!

  “What we have to do is to make sure there is loadshedding,” advised Samuel Kwesi Fletcher, the Head of Communications at the Volta River Authority (VRA). TYPICAL BLACK MAN'S RESPONSE TO AN ANTICIPATED CRISES...THEY KNOW NIGERIANS GO ON STRIKE ALOT AND THEY SIT THERE WITHOUT ANY CONTINGENCY PLAN.

  Ghana has three hydroelectric dams: Akosombo dam, Kpong hydroelectric dam and the newly constructed Bui dam. Aside this we have the Aboadze power and Takoradi power plants. I am sure by now we can all conclude that the decision to invest in the West Africa Gas Pipeline was not a prudent one because Nigeria has admitted that they would not be able to supply us with the gas that we need.
  
  However what is disturbing is that the additional power being generated is not being used by our industries or consumers. We supply Togo, Benin and Nigeria through two grids one in the south and one in the North. We also supply ivory coast and Burkina Faso with electricity. Inspite of this the cost of electricity to the average consumer has not declined and many would tell you that it is very expensive. There is another thing I don't understand. The government sometimes tells us there is power crises meanwhile electricity supply to other countries from Ghana continues unabated.
  
  A look at the map of the national electricity grid would tell you straight away that the at least 12 Akyem districts in the Eastern Region which make up more than half the population of the region have been cheated.
  
  In the load shedding exercise it is imperative that some key areas be left out. This should include where the three arms of government work and reside like Sakumono where MPs (representatives) reside and flag staff house and osu castle where the President works and resides. Where the chief justice works and resides should also be included. It should also include the premises of key government institutions like ministries.We need to quadruple our electricity production within the next four years but not through foreign investors.
