Solomon Adjetey is the Chief Director at the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition
Ghana has reaffirmed its strong support for regional energy integration efforts, as stakeholders gathered in Accra for a high-level meeting on the future of West Africa’s power integration.
Speaking on behalf of the Minister of Energy and Green Transition at WAPP 330kV Double Circuit Côte d’Ivoire–Ghana Interconnection Reinforcement Project in Accra, the Chief Director at the ministry, Solomon Adjetey stressed the importance of the project to fostering sustainable energy development in Ghana.
According to him, Ghana’s energy sector has lagged for the last decade, with the country now experiencing an average output in terms of electricity generation.
“We are truly delighted to host you today as we take a decisive step forward in our shared vision for regional energy integration. This study represents the outcome of rigorous analysis and collective technical effort. Its findings will shape our decisions as we move toward realising this critical infrastructure,” he stated.
The study, developed through months of technical collaboration, is expected to guide the next steps toward implementation of the project seen as a cornerstone for future regional energy trade.
Adjetey further reaffirmed the government’s commitment to fully support the functioning of the framework and execution of the project to boost Ghana’s energy generation mix.
“This framework will not only facilitate the implementation of the project but also ensure that our collaboration is grounded in mutual trust, transparency, and shared responsibility. As the host institution, I wish to reaffirm the full availability and commitment of the Hon. Minister to actively support the functioning of this cooperation framework. We are ready to contribute our expertise, resources, and institutional support to ensure the timely and successful execution of this project,” he added.
