The Acting Chief Executive of the Volta River Authority (VRA), Ing. Edward Ekow Obeng-Kenzo, has emphasized the importance of collaboration between the VRA and Nuclear Power Ghana (NPG) to achieve energy security.
During a courtesy call on the management of NPG at their headquarters in Accra, Obeng-Kenzo stressed the need for deeper relations between the two entities.
Executive Director of NPG, Dr. Stephen Yamoah, welcomed the call for collaboration and expressed his desire for closer ties with the VRA in producing low-carbon energy to meet Ghana’s growing needs.
Obeng-Kenzo assured Yamoah of the VRA’s commitment to fostering close working relationships to enhance power generation.
As part of his outreach efforts, Obeng-Kenzo also paid a courtesy call on the Bui Power Authority, which houses NPG at BPA Heights. NPG was established in 2018 as the owner/operator of Ghana’s first proposed nuclear power plant and has been duly registered under the Companies Code of Ghana as a Limited Liability Company.
With its core staff drawn from the VRA, Bui Power Authority, and the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission, NPG is responsible for project development, feasibility studies, plant and site licensing, regulatory compliance, construction, and commissioning, ensuring that the plant operates in compliance with international best practices.
