Teshie: Residents in parts of Teshie and surrounding communities in the Ledzokuku Municipality are expected to experience planned electricity interruptions from Tuesday, April 28 to Saturday, May 2, 2026, as engineers carry out a major upgrade at the Teshie Nungua Primary Substation. The exercise forms part of efforts to improve power reliability and increase supply capacity in the area.
According to Ghana Web, the work schedule involves upgrading Transformer 1 from a 20/26MVA unit to a 30/39MVA capacity unit. The upgrade will be implemented in phases over two days, with affected communities grouped into operational blocks to help engineers manage load distribution and minimize prolonged outages in any single area.
Affected communities include parts of Grada Estates, Century Road, Teshie Zongo, First Junction, Teshie Nungua Estate, Teshie Maami Beach, the Teshie Cemetery area, Railways, Okpoi Gonno, and Agblezaa, among others. Essential facilities such as schools, churches, hospitals, police stations, and commercial establishments within these areas are also expected to be affected during the scheduled maintenance periods.
Power supply is expected to be restored progressively as each phase of the upgrade is completed, with the final phase scheduled for completion by Saturday, May 2, 2026. Authorities have advised residents and businesses in the affected communities to make the necessary arrangements ahead of the temporary disruption, particularly during peak hours of the maintenance window.
