The Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Dr John Abdulai Jinapor, has described the commissioning of Ghana’s first-ever Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) facility as a major milestone in the country’s energy transition agenda.
In a social media post on Tuesday, January 27, Dr Jinapor said he joined Tetracore Gas Ghana Limited to commission the facility, noting that the project represents a decisive step towards cleaner, more affordable and reliable energy for the country.
According to the Minister, the CNG facility will help reduce Ghana’s dependence on expensive liquid fuels while supporting industrial growth and creating jobs across the energy value chain.
He emphasised that expanding access to gas remains critical to improving energy security and lowering production costs for businesses.
Dr Jinapor commended Tetracore Gas Ghana Limited for its vision and commitment, describing the project as a strong example of private sector participation in advancing Ghana’s energy infrastructure and sustainability goals.
He reaffirmed the Government’s support for expanding gas supply and strengthening energy infrastructure, in line with President John Dramani Mahama’s Gas-to-Power Policy, which seeks to leverage Ghana’s gas resources to drive economic growth and accelerate the transition to cleaner energy.
