The Minister of Energy has called on investors in the energy sector to partner the Ghana Ghana Cylinder Manufacturing Company. (GCMC) towards the mass production of LPG cylinders, cookstoves as well as Autogas cylinders.
Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh says the firms will also be required to partner GCMC in other strategic areas of operation.
He made the call when Officials of Trafigura, a global company with interest in Energy and allied sectors called on him at the Energy Ministry.
Led by their Country Manager, Kwasi Amanor, discussions focused essentially on the investment opportunities in Ghana’s energy sector.
Dr. Prempeh indicated clearly, that Ghana’s Energy sector has enormous potential they can explore.
He highlighted that the global advocacy for energy transition demands that Ghana aggressively develop and utilise cleaner energy resources such as solar, wind, hydro and nuclear among others and presents a fine opportunity for them to explore.
The Minister who is also MP for Manhyia South told the delegation that Ghana’s quest for low carbon electricity generation and the expansion of market-based cleaner cooking solutions and sustainable charcoal production also present fine opportunities for investment.
The company expressed their commitment to working closely with the ministry in the strategic utilisation of Ghana’s energy resources for the benefit of Ghanaians.
