The Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) remains locked in discussions over proposed tariff adjustments for electricity and water, as this morning’s meeting ended without resolution.
Sources indicate that PURC is evaluating a 27% increase in electricity tariffs and a 9.5% adjustment for water, raising concern about the financial strain these changes could impose on households and businesses across Ghana.
The meeting, held earlier today April 11, 2025, ended in a deadlock, with stakeholders unable to reach a consensus.
The commission is set to reconvene at 12:00 noon, as officials attempt to finalize decisions that could shape the cost of essential services for millions of citizens.
With the rising cost of utilities fueling public debate, industry analysts expect further scrutiny over how these adjustments will impact economic productivity and consumer livelihoods.
