Businesses and households face unpredictable power outages during critical infrastructure repairs
Companies and residents in Ghana experience sudden, extended blackouts when essential power transmission infrastructure requires maintenance or repairs, disrupting operations, causing financial losses, and creating safety hazards. Current solutions lack real-time communication about outage duration and restoration timelines, leaving businesses unable to plan contingencies or protect sensitive equipment. The problem is acute in regions dependent on centralized power stations like Akosombo where single points of failure create cascading blackouts.
