6 FAQs about [Ghana optimal energy solutions]

How will Ghana improve its electricity sector from 2010 to 2030?

A stronger foundation has been therefore set for further advancement in Ghana’s electricity sector from 2010 up to the moment. The aim of the government is to increase the capacity of renewable energy continuously in electricity generation with 10% of the renewable energy in the country’s energy mix by 2030 being a target.

How can Ghana reduce reliance on petroleum fuel?

Ghana has ability to lower the reliance on petroleum fuel through production of its own energy from sources that are renewable. If the right measures are properly taken, the potential renewable resources available in Ghana such as hydropower, solar, wind, biomass, biogas could reduce the current energy demand in Ghana by atleast 55%.

What are the energy policy constraints in Ghana?

The least cost system developed by LEAP (Optimum scenario), was used as a reference to examine future possible energy policy direction in Ghana. The policy constraints analysed included emission targets, carbon taxes and transmission, distribution losses improvements and demand side efficiency.

How has Ghana established its energy sector?

The results show that the Ghana Government has established its energy sector based on the definition of the key targets in line with the world trend. Ghana is equipped with a vast quantity of renewable energy potentials which include hydropower, solar, wind, and bioenergy.

Is Ghana a good place to get electricity?

Thanks to strong government leadership since the 1990s, Ghana had an electricity access rate of 84% in 2018, one of the highest in sub-Saharan Africa. To reach the remaining population, grid densification (58% of the new connections) and stand-alone systems (27%) are the two main least-cost solutions in both scenarios. IEA. Licence: CC BY 4.0

Is solar energy a viable option in Ghana?

Ghana is a fertile ground for expanding renewable energy sector because of the abundance of the natural resources, geographical conditions and government policies which are favourable. The country is enjoying ample sunlight in the entire year and therefore solar energy is an option that is highly viable.
