Ghana primarily uses natural gas for thermal power generation, but occasionally uses light crude oil and diesel. Ghana exports power to Togo, Benin, and Burkina Faso. The Government of Ghana remains heavily involved in the energy sector, with state entities having a controlling presence in the entire value chain.
Ghana’s power supply sources are from hydroelectricity, thermal fueled by crude oil, natural gas and diesel, solar and also imports from La Cote D’Ivoire. Ghana also exports power to Togo, Benin and Burkina Faso. Ongoing grid expansions would allow further exports to other neighboring countries in the sub region.
Around $70 billion of cumulative energy supply investment is needed in the STEPS, 60% of which is for upstream oil and gas. Investment ramps up by nearly 45% in the AC, with a strong emphasis on renewables and electricity networks. Thanks to notable efforts on electrification, the goal of full access is within grasp in Ghana.
