Ghana’s Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Dr John Abdulai Jinapor, has held a series of bilateral meetings with key energy industry players on the sidelines of African Energy Week, as the government steps up efforts to attract foreign investment and strengthen the country’s energy sector.
The meetings brought together companies with existing operations in Ghana and potential investors interested in entering the Ghanaian market to explore opportunities across the energy industry.
According to the minister, participating companies commended Ghana for its significant economic recovery over the past year and praised the government’s efforts to reposition the energy sector as an attractive destination for local and international investors.
The companies also reaffirmed confidence in Ghana’s business environment, recognising the country’s commitment to creating opportunities for investment, expanding energy infrastructure and promoting sustainable economic growth.
Dr Jinapor emphasised that the government remains committed to developing a credible, competitive and investor-friendly energy sector built on transparency, policy certainty and predictability.
He noted that these principles are essential to boosting investor confidence, attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), strengthening long-term partnerships and creating a favourable environment for sustainable investment in Ghana’s energy industry.
The government’s engagement with established energy companies and prospective investors forms part of broader efforts to improve Ghana’s energy investment climate, support economic development and position the country as a leading destination for energy business in Africa.
With growing interest from international investors, Ghana aims to unlock new opportunities across the energy value chain while promoting a transparent and reliable business environment that supports long-term growth.
