Deputy Energy Minister unveils 850kWp solar system at Sintex Tank factory
The Deputy Minister of Energy and Green Transition, Mr Richard Gyan-Mensah, on Thursday, November 27, 2025, inaugurated an 850kWp grid-tied solar power system at the Sintex Tank Factory located in the Tema Industrial Park.
Representing the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Mr John Abdulai Jinapor, the Deputy Minister lauded Sintex Industries for what he described as a “significant and forward-looking investment” in clean energy.
He noted that by integrating solar power into its operations, Sintex is not only reducing its operational costs but also cutting down carbon emissions and aligning with global environmental sustainability standards.
Mr. Gyan-Mensah emphasised that the project feeds directly into the government’s renewable energy agenda, particularly the national target to increase the share of modern renewables in Ghana’s energy mix from the current 5 percent to 10 percent by 2030.
He further urged industries—both large-scale and small-scale—to take inspiration from Sintex’s example by incorporating solar and other renewable technologies into their production processes.
“This is an opportunity to transform our factories, offices, and homes into champions of clean energy. Together, we can build a more secure, affordable, and sustainable energy future for Ghana,” he remarked.
According to him, this installation marks a major milestone in private-sector participation in Ghana’s transition toward greener and more resilient energy systems.
