It would cost less than $400 to give everybody a solar panel, battery and light bulb. But there would be no chop chop for the politician because there would be no bills to pay as long as the sun keep shining. If there are 1 million homes in Ghana everybody could have light for $400,000,000.

Ghana must without wasting further time invite countries with proven records in the use of solar and wind energy to help us produce more, environmentally friendly and cheaper energy of national significance.For a start, the refurbished office block for parliament could be powered by solar plants. Ghana must reduce reliance on oil- based systems.

How can we sit in so much filth and still have mayors at post? How can Accra have so many commercial and high class buildings and the city authorities not have enough to develop the city? How can we build a dam in a dry sunny region? Ghana is sick from bad leadership. Not just mahama but kuffuor also did. The point is we don't think through issues thoroughly and we jump to what is politically newsworthy. We must think and get the right peop
E on board regardless of their political hats. ONE GHANA.

A renowned Ghanaian environmental journalist advised the then government some ten years ago to invest in solar and not the Bui Dam. He explained that constructing the Bui dam was a clear example of how governments waste the tax payer's money. I read his articles on the internet. Now what are we seeing.

People are talking about solar, solar, solar....Ghana has a lot of sunny days...that's great, but the cost of solar electricity is significantly more expensive than traditional methods. Hydro is cheaper than solar. natural gas generators are much cheaper than solar power.
The western european governments are more concerned about the environment, that is why they are going with green power. They can't afford to go 100% green because their cost for affordable electricity would sky rocket.
