The PURC in a statement announced that electricity and water tariffs will be increased by an average of 14.75%, while water tariffs will go up by 4.02%.

According to the statement the new tariffs, are set to take effect on May 3, 2025.

“The commission, in their decision today at 6pm reviewed upward the average end-user tariff for electricity by 14.75 per cent and also 4.02 per cent upward for water supply across board for all category of consumers,” he stated.

The PURC recognized the adjustments were due to the exchange rate between the Ghanaian cedi and the US dollar, inflation projections, fuel costs, and the current hydro-thermal generation mix.

PURC in a statement issued on Friday, April 11 revealed the commission needs to recover 50% of outstanding revenue amounting to GHS976 million from previous quarters in 2024

The statement added the remaining 50% will be spread over subsequent quarters in 2025.

Meanwhile, some Ghanaians have fired shots at Dennis Aboagye saying, “ You and your stupid previous administration did this to us. We won’t let jandam work again mmoaaa”.

“Sometimes I wonder whether you the NPP guys are fools or you think Ghanaians are rather fools.

NPP entered into an agreement with IMF to increase utility tariffs every quarter, brought e-levy and now you want to blame this NDC government? We’re even lucky e-levy has been repealed”, another stated.

One other X user stated, “For educational purposes, it is an IMF programme we entered in the previous regime. Don’t let anybody mislead U”
