GRIDCo to receive 100 Megawatts power boost from Independent Power Generators

Ghana is set to bolster its electricity supply by around 100 megawatts in the coming days, as the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) strikes a deal with Independent Power Generators Ghana.

This move aims to mitigate the persistent power outages that have plagued the country recently.

West Coast Gas Ghana Limited announced that a strategic redirection of gas supplies to key power plants will be instrumental in optimising the nation’s power generation capabilities.

As part of this realignment, approximately half of the gas currently supplied to the Takoradi International Company (TICO) by the Volta River Authority (VRA) will be redirected to Cenpower. This will enable Cenpower to operate a full combined cycle, thereby increasing its efficiency.

Simultaneously, VRA will divert gas previously allocated to the Kpone Thermal Power Plant to Sunon Asogli’s Phase 1, enabling it to operate at full combined cycle capacity.

The rationale behind this shift is a focus on the more efficient utilisation of natural gas. By prioritising the dispatch of available combined cycle plants over simple cycle plants, the initiative seeks to maximise output while navigating current gas supply constraints and leveraging available thermal plants more effectively.

“Half of gas being supplied to TICO by VRA is expected to be redirected to Cenpower to run a full combined cycle while VRA will redirect gas supply from Kpone Thermal Power Plant to Sunon Asogli for its Phase 1 to run in full combined cycle.”

“A more efficient way of utilising natural gas is to dispatch available combine cycle plants ahead of simple cycle plants. This proposal is based on current gas supply constraints and available thermal plants,” read parts of the statement.

This proactive approach by Ghana’s power sector stakeholders signifies a concerted effort to address the country’s energy challenges. It underscores the importance of strategic planning and collaboration in ensuring a reliable and efficient power supply, which is crucial for the sustainable economic growth of the nation.

The move is expected to not only alleviate the immediate strain on the power grid but also to boost the overall power generation capacity, providing a more stable and reliable power supply for businesses and households across Ghana.
