The Ministry of Energy and Green Transition has announced plans to begin the massive distribution of standardised and accurate electricity meters from April 2026.
The minister for energy and green transition, John Abdulai Jinapor, stated that the move forms part of efforts to enhance revenue mobilisation in the power sector.
He disclosed this while answering questions on the floor of Parliament on Monday, March 16.
The exercise will also include the installation of new transformers to improve power supply and stabilise electricity distribution across the country.
“Next month, we will start the large-scale rollout of transformers. Within that same month, we should see a much more massive injection of new, standardised and accurate meters. That is how we can make sure that there is guaranteed revenue for investment.
“All meters procured are tested. I can assure you that these meters are of high quality; they meet the standards, and they do the job they are supposed to do,” he said.
