The Africa Centre for Energy Policy (ACEP) says there is low patronage of Renewable Energy (RE) among Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) which deprives them of the benefits of the technology.
ACEP observed that about 89% of SMEs relied on conventional sources of power with 11% opting for fuel powered generation as primary source of power; with secondary source of power, 60% relying on diesel power generators while only 5% used renewable energy sources. 35% had no backup source of power.
This was made known to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in a Zoom presentation on Tuesday by the Policy Lead Climate Change and Energy Transition, ACEP, during which he presented the findings of a survey conducted on how SMEs in Ghana had adopted RE in their work.
