The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has announced significant progress in resolving the controversy surrounding its missing containers. Appearing before Parliament’s Energy Committee, the company revealed that it has successfully traced all the containers previously flagged as unaccounted for, with more than 1,000 already retrieved from Tema Port.
The containers, which contained cables and other vital equipment, became the subject of public scrutiny after an audit earlier this year uncovered a shortfall of 1,347 between ECG’s official records and the inventory at the port. The discovery raised concerns about accountability and possible losses in critical power infrastructure materials.

Acting Managing Director Ing. Julius Kpekpena informed the committee that since May, ECG has intensified its operations at the port, systematically clearing the backlog of containers. He stressed that while the process is ongoing, the company has managed to track every single container flagged as missing, ensuring they are now being moved into ECG’s possession.
In addition to resolving the container issue, ECG reported progress in stabilizing electricity supply. Management explained that although outages have not been completely eliminated, steps have been taken to minimize disruptions, with further measures planned to avoid a return to past levels of instability.
