This was, he said in his statement, \u201cto enhance proper coordination among the key institutions already established\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In 2008, the then Ghanaian government decided that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/power\">power<\/a> should form part of the country\u2019s future <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/energy\">energy<\/a> mix. This led to the formation of the GNPPO in 2012, and in 2013 the country formally submitted a letter to the International Atomic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/energy\">Energy<\/a> Agency (IAEA), declaring its intention of developing a peaceful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/energy\">energy<\/a> programme<a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">Nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/technology\">technology<\/a> is not new to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a>. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Atomic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/energy\">Energy<\/a> Commission was established in 1963 and has been operating a Chinese-supplied 30 kW Miniature Neutron Source Reactor since 1994, designated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Research Reactor-1. In 2016 this was converted so that it could use low enriched uranium fuel in place of the previous highly enriched uranium fuel that it had previously needed.<\/p>\n<p>By early 2015, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> had signed or ratified several IAEA conventions. In August of that year, the country\u2019s Parliament passed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">Nuclear<\/a> Regulatory <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/power\">Power<\/a> Act, setting up an independent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> regulator, which came into operation at the start of 2016. The IAEA has a \u2018milestones\u2019 approach to the development of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/energy\">energy<\/a> in \u2018emerging <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> countries\u2019 such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a>. Consequently, in January 2017, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> hosted an IAEA Integrated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">Nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/infrastructure\">Infrastructure<\/a> Review (INIR) mission. A follow-up INIR mission visited the country in October 2019, and reported good progress in the implementation of the recommendations made by the first IAEA mission. In 2020, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> passed the IAEA\u2019s first pre-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/project\">project<\/a> milestone.In his statement, President Akufo-Addo assured that the government was committed to \u201ctransparency, adherence to the strict standards of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/safety\">safety<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/security\">security<\/a>, and accountability in the peaceful uses of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/technology\">technology<\/a> and [will] continue with its efforts to implement the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/power\">power<\/a> programme in the subsequent phases in the development of the programme by using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/technology\">technology<\/a> to generate electricity to accelerate national development and industrialisation\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>While the GNPPO is responsible for all aspects of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/energy\">energy<\/a> programme, the oversight of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/construction\">construction<\/a> and operation of the planned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/power\">power<\/a> plant (NPP) is the responsibility of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">Nuclear<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/power\">Power<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a>, set up in 2018 and registered as a company in 2019. Last year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> issued a Request for Interest for its first NPP. Five vendors responded, from Canada, (South) Korea, Russia and the US. It is expected that this first Ghanaian NPP will have a capacity of 1 GWe, and that a contract will be signed in 2024 or 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Further, earlier this year, the US government stated that it would support <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a>\u2019s adoption of small <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/modular\">modular<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/nuclear\">nuclear<\/a> reactor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/technology\">technology<\/a>. This would be done through the US State Department\u2019s Foundational <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/infrastructure\">Infrastructure<\/a> for Responsible Use of Small <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/modular\">Modular<\/a> Reactor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engineeringnews.co.za\/topic\/technology\">Technology<\/a> programme. (With regard to the US, last week California State legislators overwhelmingly voted to extend the life of that State\u2019s only NPP, Diablo Canyon, until 2030; it had been meant to shut down by 2025.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana. he President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, has ordered that the Ghana Nuclear Power Programme Organisation (GNPPO) be transferred from the Ministry of Energy to the Office of the President, World Nuclear News has reported.
