ECG constructs new power lines for Greater Kumasi c’nities

The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) is building a new power distribution line. This project aims to improve electricity supply in the Atwima Kwanwoma Constituency. This area is located in Greater Kumasi.

Currently, the project is 40% complete. It is expected to finish by the end of 2025. The total cost of the project is GH¢2,287,841.31.

Mr. George Amoah is ECG's General Manager for the Ashanti West Region. He stated that a new 11kV feeder will be created from the Kumasi Asekyem Primary Substation.

This new feeder will help reduce the load on existing Kokoben and Ampabame feeders. Once finished, communities like Ahenema Kokoben, Trede, and Heman will benefit from better power reliability. Other areas such as Darko, Ampatia, Ampabame, Kotwi, Pakyi, Bebu, Brofoyedru, Bekwame will also see improvements.
