Policy Report Note - Ghana

This note summarizes a report prepared by Lighting Africa to identify key policy barriers to the adoption of modern lighting products and services in Ghana, and offers recommendations for their mitigation. (Lighting Africa Policy Report: Ghana, March 2011, prepared by Marge and Econoler with subsequent updates by the Lighting Africa Team.) The report involved consultations with a range of stakeholders—across the supply chain—to obtain an independent, objective assessment of the prevailing policy environment for low cost lighting and electrification services in the country. Ghana is one of eight countries studied.
