The Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo) is installing the highest transmission Tower Line in Ghana at Krapa in the Ejisu Municipality of Ashanti region to reduce power congestion which is causing the recent power outages in the Ashanti region and parts of the country.
The project is part of the ongoing works on the 551km, 330KV Kumasi-Kintampo-Tamale Transmission Line and the 80 meter Bolgatanga 330KV Line Projects.
Speaking to the media after a visit to the Project site, the Chief Executive of GRIDCo, Jonathan Amoako-Baah said electricity consumption has increased in Kumasi, necessitating the construction of transmission lines with bigger capacities to adequately serve the people.
