The University of Environment and Sustainable Development in Somanya in the Eastern Region have had their electricity supply restored after they made full payment of their debt owed the Electricity Company of Ghana Limited (ECG).
The University was owing the power distribution company an amount of GHC867,698.92 which was the total cost of power consumed in the three years of its operations.
Out of this, they made an initial payment of GHC50,000 after their power got disconnected by the ECG team. This amount, however, was not enough to restore supply, as against the total debt.
They had their power supply curtailed on April 4, 2023, and it was restored on April 18, after full payment was made.
The ECG has been embarking on a nationwide revenue mobilization program to claim debts owed it by its various customers. This program was started on March 20, 2023 and is expected to end on April 20, 2023.
All customers of the power distributor who are in debt are encouraged to make payment to clear this debt. The revenue mobilization drives happens to be a major part of the company’s operations hence more of such will happen periodically.
