The Ghana National Gas Company Limited has acquired ownership of the Ghana Cylinder Manufacturing Company Limited due to the latter\u2019s significant losses, including a loss of GH\u00a24 million recorded in 2021.<\/p>\n
According to the government, this move aims to enhance the Ghana Cylinder Manufacturing Company\u2019s capacity to produce more cylinders that effectively meet customer needs.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a ceremony in Accra, Herbert Krapa, the Minister of State at the Ministry of Energy, described the acquisition as a significant milestone.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat we are celebrating here today, I believe is the culmination of different milestones. Starting with the President approving the acquisition of cylinder manufacturing by the Ghana National Gas Company and I think the President deserves all our applause for that.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we also need to acknowledge the Ghana National Gas Company for stepping up and taking the responsibility of acquiring the Ghana Cylinder Manufacturing Company. I joined the Ministry of Energy at a time when the conversation about the acquisition was ongoing.<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026 It was not only Ghana Gas who was interested in this acquisition, there were other interested parties and Ghana Gas put on such a compelling case that it was just impossible to ignore the benefit and the future that cylinder manufacturing partnership with Ghana Gas,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Genevieve Sackey, Managing Director of the Ghana Cylinder Manufacturing Company Limited, emphasised that this initiative supports the country\u2019s goal of transitioning to a low-carbon economy.<\/p>\n
\u201cLaunching the new GCMC represents not just a local change. It demonstrates Ghana\u2019s dedication to upholding global environmental, social and governance standards. By adopting sustainable production methods and advocating for clean energy, we are positioning Ghana as a pioneer in a shape to a low carbon economy,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
