We’ll transform ECG together – Acting MD tells staff

The Acting Managing Director (MD) of the Electricity Company of Ghana Ltd. (ECG), Kwame Kpekpena, has pledged to work collaboratively with the company’s staff to transform ECG into a sustainable and efficient power distribution company.

Addressing staff in the Accra West region, Mr. Kpekpena acknowledged past inefficiencies and committed to reducing losses, increasing revenue, improving supply reliability, and enhancing operational efficiency through technological advancements.

He emphasized that achieving these goals would require transparency, accountability, and financial discipline.

To ensure effective monitoring and evaluation of the company’s operations, he announced the formation of four specialized teams focusing on commercial operations, finance, network operations, and technology.

The Acting General Manager for the Accra West region, Emmanuel Ankrah, assured the MD of the region’s support in implementing his strategic vision. He acknowledged that while operational and logistical challenges had occasionally hindered service delivery, the staff remained dedicated to fulfilling ECG’s mission of providing quality, reliable, and safe electricity services to support Ghana’s economic growth and development.

During the staff durbar, the Accra West region was recognized as the second-best-performing region within ECG. In recognition of this achievement, the acting MD presented a plaque to Emmanuel Ankrah, which read,

“This award is proudly presented by the Management of ECG to the Accra West Region in recognition of its excellent performance in operational efficiency, customer service, and sustainable growth throughout the year 2024. Congratulations!”

The Accra West region of ECG comprises eight operational districts, Ablekuma, Achimota, Amasaman, Bortianor, Dansoman, Kaneshie, Korle-Bu, and Nsawam.
