The Electricity Company of Ghana ( ECG) has confirmed that the new load management program for the country will prevent the situation where some households go without power for more than two days or more.

ECG says households are expected to enjoy 12 hours of constant Electricity supply under the new program that has been in operation for some time now.
This comes at a time when consumers are demanding that ECG explains why some communities have been without power for more than 2 or 3 days.
Addressing the press, the Director of Operations at ECG, Engineer Tetteh Okine assured that the program will be reviewed before the end of March.
“We’ve already started, so far we’ve made the programme till the end of March. But the load management committee meets regularly so as and when we meet we will review the situation, if there is the need to make any changes to the timetable then we will do that. This programme is to make sure you don’t go off two days or three days.”
