The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) will in the coming days come out with a timetable for a load-shedding exercise.
Areas to be affected and periods for the exercise are expected to be contained in the timetable.
Managing Director (MD) of ECG, Kwame Agyeman-Budu, disclosed this in Accra yesterday and explained that the exercise had become necessary because of a tie-in of the 330kv transmission lines from Aboadze in the Western Region to the new Bulk Supply Point under construction at Pokuase in the Ga West District of the Greater Accra Region.
