We can't supply electricity to a small country of 25 million or so? I guess the God in the advanced countries is different from ours. It must rain everyday in China, US, Europe etc. Nana Yaa, it is called finding other sources for electricity generation. It is called using your brains and not simply throwing your hands in the air or asking for prayers. If we wanted someone to pray, we would have selected the cardinal we have as president.

We are being too dependent on Hydro-power.
Other countries are thinking of other alternative means of generating power, but Ghana is so fixated on hydro and thermal.
Countries like India, Kenya and Nigeria are going Solar.
India is currently building the world largest solar power system, and here is Ghana, being clueless about its energy future.
Ghana needs people who can think outside the box. People who can think broadly.
There is so much sunshine, yet we use very little or none of it to generate power.
At this point, Ghanaians don't need to sit down and wait for outsiders come tell them how to solve problems that they can readily solve themselves.
Ghanaians have developed the mentality of sitting down and waiting for outsider to come solve simple problems for.

Ghanaians must learn to accept the current power crisis rather than keep “living in denial.” John Mugu Mahama (and of course any good leader) should have spent the time in Germany telling Ghanaians what his government was doing to solve the problem rather than explaining it to them. Ghanaians already know what the problem is and no one wants to hear it. I don't think Ghanaians voted governments in power to tell them what their problems are; they do so to get them solve problems.

Decentralized energy for individuals to supplement their needs may be the key. With decreasing prices for solar panels world-wide (now about 50 US cents per Watt), Government must urgently and publicly announce that individuals who can afford solar, wind and other alternative sources could bring in the systems, free of customs and other duties - to supplement their power supply. This is the policy of Germany, where individuals are subsidized to produce their own energy, and also to supplement the power on the national grid! Our president has only recently returned from Germany, where he requested for energy assistance; just copy their policy option of free importation and installation of alternative energy systems, and we shall chalk some progress on the energy front!
I bet many Ghanaians, and certainly most in the diaspora would rush to send down systems to incorporate in their homes, or help their relatives to acquire the systems. Solar, wind and other alternative small-scale power systems would then mushroom like we now find mobile phones everywhere in Ghana. ECG would then be free to cater mainly for heavy industry and other SMEs for continued productivity.
Are our policy-makers in the energy sector sleeping on the job?

why is this PURC always finding excuses for the ECG?
you guys were hidding behind the Price of the crude oil in the world market, after your hideout was bom and blasted by the fall of the oil Price ,you run into lack of raining to excuse your incompetent, corrupt ,unpatrotic and inability to give competents advise to the government to set her priorities right for Ghana economy.
PURC - you are not working for the People so it is better to stop talking and do the PRO Gymicks for the government and the company

What is wrong with Ghana's mentality. Until when would the nation realize that Ghana cannot continue to depend on Akosombo alone for power supply nationally? KNUST has been in existence for long. There is sunshine almost all year round. Wind energy is also a possibility. Explore, implement and stop talking about impossibility of power solutions

Beautiful Nana Yaa Gyantuah,let us get the Right Thing Engineers on Board,not Engineers who will advice you that we should PRAY for RAIN.

Ghanaians must kick them out- we have suffered enough under failed NDC
What they are not saying, is that the Bagre Dam in Burkina Faso is the cause.
Ever since that dam was built, Akosombo has always experienced low water levels. They, the Energy and Power people know this very well.
Instead ...

Madam, you could have put it in a better way. We all know you are not God, however, there are other scientific ways to create rain.
She sounds like Kutu acheampong in those days when there was drought and shortage of food.Hmmm... Message of gloom and despair.
We can't supply electricity to a small country of 25 million or so? I guess the God in the advan ...

Right??! It's pathetic.
what school did this fool went, how can Ghana moved forward with fool like this making decision. is hydro power the only source of electricity?
Who has asked you to conjure rains from heaven,madame?Go and buy crude oil and gas for all these Thermal Power Plants in the country and dumsur will stop.Thank you.
look at what she is saying, no one is asking you to conjure rain because you are not God. however, as a Director you are supposed to know how to find solution to the energy crises.
WITH FOOLS LIKE THIS CONTROLLING THINGS, HOW CAN GHANA IMPROVE?
My brother you couldn't have said it better than this
Kutu Acheampong once in a desprate situation said "menye Nyame na m'ato nsuo". We're all witnasses of what Jerry did to him a couple of months later. PURC is cursed and your days are numbered, we're waiting to see your back.
This is what President Mahama should have known than telling the people of Ghana lies.
We are being too dependent on Hydro-power.
Other countries are thinking of other alternative means of generating power, but Ghana is so fixated on hydro and thermal.
Countries like India, Kenya and Nigeria are going Solar ...

IT WILL COST A FEE OF $20M
That is what you get when you appoint fouls to positions. Ask Kutu Akyeampong how this works.

Late Gen Kutu Acheampong said similar thing; this is an indication that wisdom has eluded our leaders who should step aside calmly to avert all these stupid utterances.
I guess the people cannot conjure money to pay for the inefficiencies of the power companies. What is the use of that useless PURC at all? Is it to create jobs for people like this Gyantuah woman?
Talking about the inefficiencies of the power companies.
What do you do? Kick out all those managers who can't perform, and get people who can do the job.

Ghana is a sad place. I have a solution to the Akosombo water level going down. There are so many technologies to resolve this. You have to think outside the box and get rains to come.
When it's election year they will get money to buy fuel to power the turbines so it's not NPP who did nothing wrong.......
THIS IS SILLY TALK. RESIGN AND SPARE US YOUR SALARIES SINCE YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER WHAT IT TAKES TO DO YOUR WORK. WE ALSO DO NOT CONJURE THE MONEY WE SPEND ON YOUR SALARY EACH MONTH.
These guys have really disappointed the entire citizenry of our dear nation. How can you rely on ONLY water to provide electricity for over 25 million people in this 21st Century?
