What is the electricity in Ghana? Electricity in Ghana comes from a mix of sources, predominantly thermal (natural gas, oil, diesel) and hydro, with a growing but small contribution from renewables like solar. Power is transmitted by GRIDCo, and distributed and sold to customers by entities like the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG). While Ghana has a substantial installed power capacity, actual availability can be lower due to factors like fuel supply and infrastructure.
