The spokesperson emphasised that the media reports regarding the nationwide blackout are inaccurate and false.

According to him, temporal interruptions in power supply may occur due to scheduled maintenance by ENI, and there are no plans for a nationwide blackout or return to widespread “dumsor.”

Speaking on Citi Eyewitness News on Wednesday, July 9, Richmond Rockson, Spokesperson and Head of Communication at the Ministry, “I have seen some misreporting from some media houses that there will be a nationwide blackout. That is not what the Minister said. That is inaccurate; that is a falsehood”.

“He [Energy Minister] said that because of that, there is a possibility that we may have interruptions in power supply, and the Ministry has put in place measures to ensure that we don’t have any nationwide dumsor or any dumsor as people are speculating.”

John Abdulai Jinapor, the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, had announced that the country will experience a Nationwide power outage on July 13.

According to him, the temporary disruption of the power supply across the country will be due to plants shutting down for maintenance.

He asserted that the gas suppliers, ENI, will turn off their valves for rehabilitation as part of the company’s measures to increase gas production to 270 mm scarf.

John Jinapor stated, “This Sunday, ENI will turn off their valves temporarily to increase gas production to about 270 MM Scarf. It means that we are stabilising the energy sector”.

“Because the plant will be turned off for a short period within the day for maintenance works, we are likely to experience some interruption of power. It is for a good purpose”, he added.

He further revealed that, based on advice from technical persons, the government will refrain from running the plant on liquid fuels.

“Based on the advice from engineers, I have directed that we do not attempt to run those plants on liquid fuel for that short period,” he stated.

Mr. Jinapor added, “It involves changing nozzles, it involves a lot of work, and so if we are going off for about for to six hours, you don’t risk it transitioning to liquid fuel only to come back to gas.”

Meanwhile, John Jinapor further assured of efforts to minimise the adverse impact of the shutdown.
