The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) is set to release a ‘dumsor’ timetable as it announces planned outages from May 10 to 17.
According to the CEO of the Company, Agyemang Budu, this has become necessary due to the ongoing works on the Pokuase Bulk Supply Point.
GRIDCO had earlier warned of imminent power cuts upon request by contractors working on the Kasoa and Pokuase substations.
During a tour of the Pokuase BSP which has been under construction since 2019, Kwame Agyemang Budu said ECG was finalising details of the timetable to be announced.
“The actual outages will occur from May 10 to 17. These outages are due to connecting the GRIDCO line to the national grid,” he said.
