Company description
ECG was incorporated in 1963 and became a limited company when shares were first sold in the firm in February 1997. However the company is still owned by the government.
The enactment of the Electricity Corporation Decree, 1967 (NLCD 125) and the repeal of the Electricity Act, established the Electricity Corporation of Ghana (ECG). For the next two decades, ECG was to remain the entity solely responsible for electricity supply and the distribution networks nationwide. In 1987, the corporation’s sphere of operation was limited to the southern parts of Ghana which also had the greater concentration of customers.
The first government-sponsored public electricity supply in the country commenced in 1914 at Sekondi. It was operated by the Railway Administration which extended supply to
During the period 1929-30, limited electricity supply was extended to Tamale until a new AC plant was installed in 1938. The next power station to be established was Cape Coast which came into being in 1932. Subsequent to its takeover by the Electricity Department from the Public Works and Railways on 1st April, 1947, a power station at Swedru was commissioned in 1948. This was followed by the installation of generating plants at Oda, Dunkwa and Bolgatanga in 1948.
The Tema power station was commissioned in 1956 with a 3 x 650 kW generating set. The Ho power station followed in 1957. From 1961-64, the Tema Station was extended to a maximum capacity of 35,298 kW, thus, making it the biggest single diesel-powered generating station in Africa.
Ghana’s main electricity power source, the Akosombo Dam has a total Plant capacity of 1020 megawatts. The country has constructed a 330 megawatts thermal plant in Takoradi to supplement its power supply needs. A 560 megawatts Sunon Asogli Power is under construction. The first phase of 200 megawatts has been completed. There is an ongoing project to build another 400 MW hydropower plant at the Bui dam in the Brong Ahafo region.

Also in 1926, work commenced on providing power to Kumasi.During the period 1929-30, limited electricity supply was extended to Tamale until a new AC plant was installed in 1938.

Constant power outages at Dodowa
Please what exactly is the problem with the Dodowa lines, the slightest thing, light will go off. The light goes off without informing anyone and it's so frequent I don't understand. Is there any fault with the ECG lines at Dodowa itself where we have a station that supplies to other areas, but the others always have light and we are ALWAYS in darkness

ECG is the reason for Ghana's under development
I live at Adomorobe and one phase of electricity is down we called the ECG office several times. Each time we call they will tell you they are on their way to they place and they never come this is so frustrating. I feel ECG is the main reason behind Ghana's under development. So unpredictable

Angry customer
ECG please what is your problem. Why is Ogbojo experiencing light out everyday? How do you people want us to work in our salons? How do we get money to cater for our children? What is wrong with you people? May God judge you all with no mercy. Put on the light because we are tired of your wickedness. Aaahhh what kind of wickedness is this..Ogbojo is tired. I pray you are all sacked so you don't get money to take care of your family then you will understand our pains

We can't serve our clients better in our salons, barbering shops, sewing centers. In our catering centers it's worst. Please stop it. It's really affecting our finances. Kindly work on it because we are tired. Thanks

Hello, my name is Roger Reinhardt, am from Germany. I have a house near Axim on the way to the village Akonu. Last september the ECG from Esiama came suddenly and wanted 3.500GHC. From September until today I never saw anybody again. I called them....they promised to come. I called your support center many times...nothing happened. I went bymy self to Esiama and begged them to let me pay.....nobody was send. I wrote to the parliament...no answer. Last week they worked here and I gave the leader all informations...no reactions. 2 years ago in 3 villages behind me you brought them electricity. Never came anybody to read the meters in 2 years. Dont you need any money? What have I to do so that you not come in 3 years again and want suddenly 10.000GHC.....
Questions & Answers
I called the call centre 9 times about phase off at Taifa Burkina more than 24hrs we are still in darkness. This is the reason customers sometimes change phases when there is problem with their phase cause ecg can make you sleep in darkness for weeks for such situation
Why is it that when you report fault they don't take it serious.
For instance we reported a burnt meter and the cables are hanging there power in it but it seems is not big deal why?
