The open forum which will include utility service providers such as the Electricity Company of Ghana, ECG, Ghana Grid Company, GRIDCO and NEDCO will be an opportunity for the service providers to make their proposals known to the public.

The ECG wants 148 percent upward adjustment whereas GRIDCO wants 37 percent increase.
Speaking on GTV Breakfast Show, Acting Director of Research and Corporate Affairs PURC, Dr. Obutey said broad stakeholder engagement will be employed to arrive at a decision.
