Power supply to industries across the country is expected to improve significantly in the coming days.
The Power Minister, Dr. Kwabena Donkor, has directed the Load Management Committee to reduce the load being shed currently for the Industrial sector from 130 Megawatts to 100 Megawatts with immediate effect.
A statement issued in Accra Tuesday, attributed the 30 MW reduction in the load shedding for Industry to an improvement in the electricity supply situation in the country.
The statement said the Ministry is keeping a close eye on developments in the generation, distribution and supply of electricity and will announce further changes as and when necessary.
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) started a power rationing plan in February where customers were expected to experience 24 hours power outage (lights off) and have power restored for the next 12 hours.
However, authorities have been unable to stick to this timetable.
Sometimes consumers go days without power with no prior announcement or explanation about what the problem is. The experience has been a source of frustration for many consumers.
Some small and medium scale businesses have had to lay off some of their workers.
