BPA’S 8TH ANNUAL STAKEHOLDERS’ MEETING HIGHLIGHTS STRONG PERFORMANCE AND RENEWABLE ENERGY GROWTH
Bui Power Authority (BPA) held its 8th Annual Stakeholders’ Meeting on Friday, August 7, 2026, at BPA Heights in Accra to review the Authority’s 2025 financial and operational performance. The meeting brought together representatives from Government, regulators, the BPA Board, Management, the State Interests and Governance Authority, energy sector partners, Traditional Authorities, and other stakeholders.
Delivering remarks on behalf of the Board Chairman, Amb. Kwadwo Nyamekye-Marfo, Board Member Hon. Alhaji Mohammed Kwaku Doku said BPA’s 2025 performance demonstrated the Authority’s capacity to deliver on its mandate while laying the foundation for its next phase of growth, particularly in renewable energy.
In 2025, BPA recorded a net profit of US$66.2 million on revenue of US$145.9 million and generated 1,438 GWh of electricity, exceeding its annual target of 1,350 GWh by 6.5 percent. The Bui Hydroelectric Plant maintained an average availability rate of 95 percent, while the Authority continued to diversify its generation portfolio by increasing its installed solar PV capacity from 55 MWp to 105 MWp during the year.
In his statement, the CEO of BPA, Ing. Kow Eduakwa Sam, announced plans to significantly scale up the Authority’s renewable energy capacity. Approximately 100 MWp of additional solar PV is expected to increase operational solar capacity to about 205 MWp. The Authority also plans to develop 300 MWp of dispatchable solar PV integrated with large-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems by the end of 2028. He, however, identified outstanding receivables from BPA’s major off-taker as a key constraint to financing the planned expansion.
Commenting on the Authority’s performance and expansion plans, the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Hon. Dr John Abdulai Jinapor, commended BPA’s achievements and urged Management to maintain financial prudence, transparency, accountability, and sound governance as the Authority advances its expanded mandate under Act 1046 and contributes to Ghana’s renewable energy agenda.
