Oti, Volta Regions To Experience "Dumsor" For Five Days

Residents in the Oti and Volta Regions will from Thursday, March 18, experience interruptions in their power supply as a result of scheduled maintenance works to be carried out by the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo).

The power outages will last five days, after which normal power supply is expected to resume on Monday, March 22.

The outages would start from 6am to 6pm.

A request from the Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) directed the latter to interrupt power supply to the two regions.

“The Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo) has requested the Electricity Company of Ghana Ltd. (ECG) to interrupt power supply from Thursday, 18th March, 2021 to Monday, 21st March, 2021.

“This request is to enable GRIDCo undertake repair works on their transformer that supplies power to both Volta and Oti Regions through the 69 KV transmission line from the Asiekpe Bulk Supply Point,” it said.
