A Turkish firm, Synergy Co. Ltd. which specialises in designing solar and smart meters has assured of its preparedness to invest in Ghana to produce Solar and smart meter technologies.
This was made known at a meeting between the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, John Abdulai Jinapor and representatives of Synergy, a Turkish company.
The meeting, which took place on Tuesday, March 11, aligns with the ministry’s agenda to promote greater solar energy use in the country.
The company, which has been in the energy business for 48 years, expressed its commitment to supporting Ghana’s renewable energy sector.
As part of its investment, Synergy plans to establish a manufacturing plant in Ghana to produce all its products locally.
The company estimates it will be able to produce up to 12 million electrical meters annually, which will include safeguards against tampering to help reduce energy losses.
The introduction of these advanced meters is expected to enhance efficiency and transparency in Ghana’s energy sector, addressing key concerns in electricity distribution.
During the meeting, Synergy also proposed the establishment of a training school to equip Ghanaians with the necessary skills in solar panel and meter production.
The initiative aims to build local capacity in renewable energy manufacturing and provide employment opportunities.
Additionally, the company requested government support in offtaking their products and services to ensure their successful integration into the Ghanaian market.
Minister Jinapor applauded the company’s decision to invest in Ghana, particularly its commitment to local manufacturing and skills development.
He emphasised the government’s support for initiatives that align with Ghana’s green transition and energy sustainability goals.
He further assured Synergy of the ministry’s willingness to collaborate in ensuring the successful implementation of their plans, noting that local content and job creation remain key priorities for the government.
