The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has announced that the current power outages are due to massive rainstorms and strong winds experienced across the country.
According to the ECG, stormy winds usually cause the falling of trees, and billboards and rip off roofs onto their electrical conductors, resulting in power outages.
However, it is working tirelessly to strengthen and maintain a robust distribution network.
In a statement issued on Thursday, May 9, the company said the outages which are caused by temporary interruptions on its feeders are remotely restored after the rainstorm.
“However, it said that permanent faults on its feeders will have to be rectified, which may take a while to be restored by its engineers.”
“Individual/localized outages and incidents of fallen or sagging conductors within customers’ vicinities should be reported to the ECG Call Center on 0302-611611, the nearest ECG office, or reach us on our social media handles via Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram for prompt intervention.
