ECG strengthens partnership with Brainsfield to boost Metering innovation

The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) is partnering Brainsfield Company Limited to reaffirm its commitment to advancing the country’s power sector.

During a recent working visit to Brainsfield’s facility at Pokuase-ACP Estate, in the Ga North Municipality, Accra, ECG Board Member, Simon Akotli, who led the delegation, commended the company for its significant contribution to ECG’s transformation efforts.

Mr Akotli noted that Brainsfield’s involvement in the supply and installation of electronic prepaid meters has played a vital role in improving operational efficiency, reducing power losses and enhancing customer service delivery.

“The presence of Brainsfield is not only supporting our metering systems, but also contributing to job creation and reducing unemployment,” he said.

He added that the current administration remains committed to fostering private-sector partnerships under the broader “Resetting Ghana” initiative.

Brainsfield CEO, Mr. Winfred Kumah Apawu, expressed gratitude for the ECG visit and emphasised the company’s readiness to deepen collaboration in delivering modern, tech-driven solutions for Ghana’s energy sector.

“Our aim is to support ECG with reliable, advanced metering technologies while promoting local employment and knowledge transfer,” Mr. Apawu stated.

The visit underscores ECG’s continued focus on leveraging local expertise as it expands the nationwide rollout of smart metering systems—an initiative expected to modernize energy distribution and support Ghana’s long-term energy efficiency goals.

Mr. Apawu also confirmed ECG’s commitment to settling outstanding debts owed to its partners to ensure smooth operations and the continued delivery of reliable, efficient services.
