Karpowership Ghana denies responsibility for recent power
Power producer refutes claims linking its operations to ongoing electricity supply challenges.
Karpowership Ghana has rejected claims that it is responsible for the recent power outages, emphasizing that it continues to generate electricity at full capacity despite the governmentβs $370 million debt.
While acknowledging ongoing discussions with the government to resolve the accumulated debt, the company highlighted that non-payment of invoices is affecting its operations. However, Karpowership Ghana dismissed allegations that its planned shutdown over the debt is causing the recent power cuts, distancing itself from the current electricity supply challenges.
Sandra Amarquaye, Communication Manager for Karpowership Ghana, told Citi Business News, βWe are not the cause of the recent outages. The powership remains operational, and as of this morning, we were producing 450 megawatts (MW) of power to the national grid.β
Karpowership Ghana plays a vital role in stabilizing the national grid by supplying up to 450 MW of electricity through its fleet of floating power plants. The company is part of the broader Karpowership network, which supports Ghanaβs energy demands, particularly during peak periods.
Despite financial strains, including $370 million in outstanding obligations owed by the government, Karpowership remains committed to working with the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition to find a sustainable solution.
The company has expressed its willingness to engage with stakeholders to resolve the financial challenges while maintaining its commitment to ensuring a stable power supply for the nation.
