Finance Minister Cassiel Ato Forson joined the John Abdulai Jinapor, Minister for Energy & Green Transition, to inaugurate the Implementation Committee for Ghana’s Second Gas Processing Plant (GPP II).
According to the finance Minister, the project is long overdue. Ghana will this year spend over $1 billion on expensive liquid fuels to power our plants — a burden on our economy and on ordinary citizens.
“With this new Gas Processing Plant, we have the opportunity to save nearly $500 million and create over 1,000 jobs for our people” he stressed.
“I reminded the committee, chaired by the Deputy Minister for Energy, that the time for bureaucracy is over. The nation is counting on them to deliver, and I’ve given them four weeks to finalise their implementation plan” the minister posted on his official Facebook page.
Atuabo Gas has been a lifeline for Ghana. GPP II will be a game-changer for our energy security, economic stability, and national welfare.
