Government is working around the clock to provide Ghanaians the requisite energy with emphasis on public-private participation to address deficiencies in the sector, Mr Joseph Oteng Agyei, Minister of Energy on Tuesday said.
Mr Agyei noted that for the past decade Ghana has been bedeviled with constant power fluctuations with its attendant's negative effects on the economy, saying with the operationalisation of the oil and gas in the country, Ghanaians would now have a sigh of relief.
He has therefore tasked power generating system operators to consider designing environmentally friendly products, which use gas to run their emergency power plants so they could fall within the framework of the West African Gas Pipe Line Project.
