Electricity Reliability

Name: Ghana Electricity Reliability
Creator: Energy Commission of Ghana, National Energy Statistics 2026

How often and for how long electricity customers lose power, by distribution utility (ECG in the south, NEDCo in the north, EPC) and area (metro, urban, rural), 2020 to 2025: SAIFI is the average number of interruptions per customer in the year, SAIDI the average hours without power per customer, CAIDI the average hours to restore supply after an interruption. Each row carries the regulatory benchmark set by L.I. 1935 for that area, so a figure can be read against the standard. The Commission's published 2025 rows for ECG and NEDCo repeat 2024 exactly and are marked in note. EPC reports one figure for its whole area, kept under metro. Sourced from the National Energy Statistics 2026, "Electricity Distribution Reliability Indices", PDF page 39; official statistics republished with attribution. 40 records.
