To undertake conformity assessment of street lighting
- The assessment will ensure compliance with street lighting standards
- GHA to participate in the programme
In collaboration with the Ghana Standards Authority (GSA), the Ghanian Energy Ministry is set to undertake a critical assessment of all street lighting installations in the country. Both agencies have resolved to improve street lighting in the country in line with street lighting standards. The assessments will involve stakeholders such as the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), the Ghana Highway Authority (GHA), and the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA).
Director of Distribution at the Ministry of Energy, Mr Chris Anaglo, while confirming the development said, ”We have met with the GSA, which is the authority in charge of standards in the country, and there will be a collaborative effort to ensure that all streetlights are up to standard”.
The assessment programme, which commences in June, will be implemented under the National Streetlight Conformity Assessment program.
