Ghana Energy Commission Engages Logistics Sector On EV Charging, Energy Conservation

Ghana’s Energy Commission has engaged participants at the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) Ghana’s 2026 Logistics and Transport Conference and Annual General Meeting on energy conservation and electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.

The commission outlined its role in regulating EV charging infrastructure, saying regulations governing the subsector are currently before Parliament awaiting passage. It also highlighted practical measures transport and logistics operators can adopt to improve energy efficiency.

The commission also addressed technical aspects of EV charging infrastructure, including standards, grid readiness and the siting of charging stations along key transport corridors.

The presentation prompted questions from fleet operators, logistics executives and transport planners on the cost of EV adoption, the pace of charging station deployment and how businesses could prepare for anticipated policy changes.

Commission officials responded to questions on both policy and technical issues, with participants commending the team for making the subject accessible and relevant to the sector.

The session highlighted the growing role of the transport and logistics industry in Ghana’s energy transition and formed part of the Energy Commission’s broader engagement with professional bodies as it works to shape and regulate the country’s evolving energy landscape.
