Bui Power to add 50MW to the national grid
Bui Power
The Bui Power Authority (BPA) will, by the end of March this year, add 50 megawatt (50mw) of solar energy to the national grid.
The innovation is backed by Parliament’s amendment of Bui Power Authority Act (Act 740), which enables the Authority to develop renewable energy and other clean energy alternatives in the country.
The 50mw renewable energy source, which is part of the Authority’s 250mw Hydro-Solar Hybrid project, was announced on Friday during a brief media engagement in Accra.
The Deputy Chief Officer of the BPA, Dr George Tettey, explained that the project aimed at assisting the government to achieve the 10% power generation from renewable energy sources target by 2030.

Statement prepared for delivery at the 153
rd meeting of the Committee of Permanent Representatives
Ambassador Coimbra,
Excellencies, colleagues
I am honoured on behalf of UNEP, to address you at the first meeting of the Committee of Permanent Representatives in 2021. It is indeed not the start to the year we had hoped for and we still have some way to journey as we seek to end the pandemic. As we scroll our newsfeeds, it has also become increasingly evident that environmental crises are part and parcel of the journey ahead. Wildfires, hurricanes, temperature records, plagues of locusts, floods and droughts, were so commonplace they do not even always make the news.
