Kofi Adda (middle) welcoming Mr. Singh to his office<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ghana and India have commenced talks for the installation of renewable energy at airports in the country.<\/p>\n

Minister of Aviation, Joseph Kofi Adda initiated the discussion on Tuesday, June 26, 2019, when the High Commissioner of India to Ghana, Birender Singh, paid a courtesy call on him at his office in Accra.<\/p>\n

Mr. Singh\u2019s visit was aimed at seeking Ghana\u2019s support for India\u2019s candidature in the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO\u2019s) upcoming election scheduled for September 2019.<\/p>\n

The Indian Envoy apprised the Minister about developments being made in India\u2019s civil aviation sector.<\/p>\n

Mr. Kofi Adda on his part bemoaned the huge cost of electricity in running airports across Ghana.<\/p>\n

He mentioned for instance that it was costing Ghana an amount of Gh\u00a2 2 million monthly on electricity cost for the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) in Accra and that other smaller airports like Tamale Airport were spending about Gh\u00a2 80,000 monthly for electricity.<\/p>\n

The Minister also proposed knowledge sharing opportunities between India civil aviation authority and that of Ghana.<\/p>\n

He further appealed for Ghanaians to be granted opportunities to study nautical engineering in India.<\/p>\n

The Indian envoy assured his host that his country will be very happy to expedite the installation of solar and other renewable energies at Ghana\u2019s airports.<\/p>\n

He revealed that an airport in India was already leading the way in the utilization of renewable energy which in his opinion was cost efficient and environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n
