RE-CONSTRUCTION OF TRANSMISSION LINES FROM

ACHIMOTA TO MALLAM SUBSTATIONS

The Ghana Grid Company Limited (GRIDCo) is re-constructing transmission lines

from the Achimota substation through Avenor to the Mallam substation.

The work involves taking out of service, two 161kV transmission lines (i.e.,
Achimota - Accra Central and Achimota – Mallam) from Saturday April 9, 2022,
to Thursday June 30, 2022. The outage is to enable GRIDCo to upgrade the
transmission capacity on each Line. This important exercise is to meet the growing
demand for electricity in Accra and its environs.

The outage will affect customers served by the Electricity Company of Ghana’s (ECG)
distribution systems crossing these transmission lines (between the Achimota
Substation at Dzorwulu and Avenor in Accra) during the day, for the stated period.

GRIDCo apologises for any inconvenience caused during the period.
