The Deputy Minister, in his response, noted that the Ministry of Energy had approved a feasibility study on islands and lakeside communities in the Afram Plains North Constituency.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe study is expected to start in August 2022 and be completed by September 2022,\u201d Mr Aidoo said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFollowing this undertaking, funding will be sourced for communities to be electrified through renewable energy mini-grids.\u201d He said communities that did not qualify for mini-grid electrification would be considered for grid electrification and solar home system.<\/p>\n
