  The notion that ECG should be blamed for any energy shortfall should be cleared from the minds of the good people of Ghana. ECG do not generate power. They are distributors of power. All the propaganda to privatize ECG must stop. They don't generate power.

  ECG does not generate power but ECG come to my house to distribute my bill n disconnect my meter if I fail to pay. We blame ECG cos the consumer deals with ECG not the power generation company. ECG must be privatise now.

  President John Mahama in his traditional Ghanaian smock apparel was met with traditional music, and a parade held in his honor.
  
  He was then welcomed to the House by the Speaker of Parliament as he entered to deliver his third state of the nation address as the Constitution demands in Article 67.
  
  The President thanked God and Ghanaians for his third year in the seat of Government. He then talked about Ghana's sixth March anniversary which will be observed next week.
  
  The President said the country was confronted with many hills, and one of such is the power crisis the country was facing. He expressed concern about the severe effects of the energy shortfall and businesses and industries.
  
  He noted that this situation has occurred in many times in the country's history.Unlike in the past when the problem was managed, President Mahama says he will fix it.
  
  "I John Dramani Mahama will fix this energy challenge," he said.
  
  The President spent time to also outline the expansion of all power generation sources to meet the country growing electricity demand.
  
  He also stressed for a restructuring of the country's power sector to ensure more efficiency particular in the areas of hydro and thermal.
  
  Under the new Millennium Challenge Compact, there is an opportunity to transform the Electricity Company of Ghana into a more reliable service provider.
  
  As an immediate measure, the President reiterated the government's plan which is on course to bring in emergency power plants. These plants will bring in additional 1,000 megawatts of power.
  
  The President said he will hold the Power Minister accountable on his promise to end the power crisis by the end of the year. The President also spoke about efforts to increase Ghana's supply to about 300million standard cubic feet meters per day.
  
  On Solar energy, the President announced plans were on course to make solar available for small-scale businesses and also make it available for residential apartments who wish to have it. He says over 200,000 rooftop solar panels will be installed as part of the project.
