ECG announces planned power outages in Teshie, Nungua for transformer upgrade

Residents in parts of Teshie and Nungua within the Ledzokuku Municipality are expected to experience planned power interruptions as engineers undertake a major upgrade of transformers at the Teshie Nungua Primary Substation.

The exercise is scheduled to take place from Tuesday, April 28 to Saturday, May 2, 2026, as part of efforts to improve power reliability and increase supply capacity in the area.

According to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), the project will involve upgrading Transformer 1 from a 20/26MVA unit to a 30/39MVA capacity unit. The works will be carried out in phases, with affected communities grouped into operational blocks to help manage load distribution and minimise prolonged outages in any single area.

Areas expected to be affected include parts of Grada Estates, Century Road, Teshie Zongo, First Junction, Teshie Nungua Estate, Teshie Maami Beach, the Teshie Cemetery area, Railways, Okpoi Gonno, and Agblezaa, among others.

Essential institutions such as schools, churches, hospitals, police stations, and businesses within these zones are also likely to be impacted during the maintenance period.

Power supply is expected to be restored progressively as each phase of the upgrade is completed, with the final phase scheduled for completion by Saturday, May 2.

Authorities have advised residents and businesses in the affected communities to plan ahead for the tem

porary disruption, particularly during peak hours.
