The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has attributed power interruptions in parts of Accra, the capital of Ghana, to a rainstorm in Greater Accra on Wednesday that flooded some of its primary substations.
The rainstorm affected the H-Dzorwulu, Burma Camp I, Station D-Avenor, High Street AH, La Trade AJ, Lakeside Estate and Gbawe, all primary substations of the company.
A statement issued by William Boateng, Director of Communications for ECG, said the power distribution company and Ghana Fire Service are working together to drain all flooded primary substations to ensure swift restoration of power supply.
“We wish to assure our cherished customers and all stakeholders of our commitment to ensuring a stable power supply, and apologise unreservedly for the effect of the outage on our daily lives,” Mr Boateng said.
