Essikado chief commends Karpowership’s support

Accra, July 21, GNA – The Paramount Chief of
the Essikado Traditional area in the Western region, Nana Kobina Nketia V, has
commended Karpowership for its immense support for their annual Kuntum festival.

A statement from Karpowership said the
commendation came after the company embarked on a clean-up exercise with the
residents of the Essikado community.

Nana Kobina Nketia V noted that the company
had also shown great support for several other activities lined-up for the
Kuntum festival.

Corporate Communications Specialist of
Karpowership, Sandra Amarquaye, stated that the company was fully committed to
embarking on such activities to promote good environmental practices within the
community.

“As an environmentally friendly and socially
responsible company, it is always our practice to support communities we
operate in. Although this is our first clean-up exercise in Takoradi, it is not
the first time embarking on such an activity. 
We are hopeful that this exercise becomes a routine to ensure a clean,
safe and a healthy environment for us all,” she said

She added that the company’s relocation to
Takoradi meant that Karpowership would now have a direct relationship with the
people of the Essikado community.

“Karpowership will soon be relocating to the
naval base which will make this place our new home. This makes us part of the
community. We will continue to support the well-being of residents in this
community”.

As part of their social intervention projects,
Karpowership embarked on a series of clean-up exercises in the Tema
municipality, provided a modern ICT lab for the Manhean Anglican School,
provided water tanks to fishmongers and community schools, offered bursary to
over 100 students in community schools in the Tema New Town area, among others.

builder of the first Powership™ (floating power plant) fleet in the world.

Currently, the company has over 2,500
employees, and owns and operates 15 Powerships with an installed capacity of
2,800 MW, and 5,000 MW Powerships under construction.
