Dealers in standby generators in Accra have been inundated with demand as businesses and residences alike seek cover from the intense power cuts the capital has been plunged into over the past three or so weeks. According to media reports across Ghana, intense power cuts in the capital can last anything between 24 to 72 hours, leaving business owners particularly with no choice other than to rely on alternative power rather than the national grid to keep business up and running. A dealer in generator sets in the Central Business District, told us demand for relatively smaller (1.5 –4.5 kVH) standby generator sets has gone up considerably. The ones that typically sold at GH¢400 now sell at GH¢450, and the issue is since most businesses rely on power it makes sense for people to come in for the generators.
