加纳总统 John Dramani Mahama 先生宣布计划对工业用户实施非高峰时段电价政策，旨在降低生产成本并提升本国制造业竞争力。这项拟议措施是政府重启工业化战略的核心组成部分，将着力解决企业长期反映的电力成本过高问题。

近日举行的私营部门总统对话会上，总统表示能源定价改革对加纳打造西非生产中心具有关键意义。他指出当前工业电价与邻国相比缺乏竞争力，强调在电力供应高价且不稳定的情况下难以实现持续工业扩张。

Mahama 总统解释称，拟推行的非高峰电价机制将允许制造商在夜间等低需求时段享受优惠电价，从而激励全天候生产。该政策将与政府 "24 小时经济" 议程形成协同效应，通过推动工厂多班制运营提升生产力。

除电价改革外，总统表示政府将重组能源领域债务、扩大可再生能源发电规模并升级输变电基础设施以确保供电稳定。他将全面能源改革称为加纳工业转型的必要条件。

本次对话会汇聚了政府高层、行业领袖与企业高管，共同研判经济形势并制定刺激私营部门增长的具体措施。总统指出，除能源问题外，融资渠道受限、土地约束及不公平贸易行为也是阻碍工业发展的主要障碍。

政府计划与加纳央行等金融机构合作，为制造商定制融资方案并扩大中小企业信贷支持。针对走私、低报货值和假冒商品泛滥等破坏本土产业的行为，总统警告将作为经济犯罪严厉打击。

总统重申将强化农产品加工、制药、纺织和钢铁等战略支柱产业的本地化生产，强调这些领域对创造就业和提升附加值的关键作用。他呼吁政企加强合作，在政府保障政策稳定和营商环境的同时，企业应扩大生产规模、创造岗位并加强技能投资。

"我们追求的加纳不会通过演讲建成。" 总统强调："它将由规模化运营的工厂构筑而成。"

'Factories Operating at Scale': Mahama Targets Energy Reform for Industrial Growth

President John Dramani Mahama has announced plans to introduce off-peak electricity tariffs for industry as part of efforts to cut production costs and strengthen the competitiveness of Ghana’s manufacturing sector.

The proposed measure forms a key component of the government’s renewed industrialisation drive and seeks to address longstanding concerns by businesses over high power costs.

Speaking at the Presidential Dialogue with the Private Sector on February 23, 2026, Mr Mahama said reforms to energy pricing would be central to positioning Ghana as a production hub in West Africa.

He noted that industrial electricity tariffs in Ghana remain uncompetitive compared with those of neighbouring countries and warned that sustained industrial expansion cannot occur under conditions of high and unreliable power supply.

Mr Mahama explained that the proposed off-peak tariff regime would enable manufacturers to benefit from reduced electricity rates during periods of lower demand, particularly at night, thereby encouraging round-the-clock operations.

The policy is expected to complement the government’s 24-hour economy agenda, which aims to boost productivity by enabling factories to operate multiple shifts.

In addition to tariff reforms, the President said the government would restructure energy-sector debt, expand power generation, particularly from renewable sources, and strengthen transmission infrastructure to ensure a stable electricity supply.

He described comprehensive energy reform as indispensable to Ghana’s industrial transformation.

The dialogue brought together senior government officials, industry leaders, and business executives to review the state of the economy and identify practical measures to stimulate private-sector growth.

Beyond energy, Mr Mahama cited limited access to affordable financing, land constraints and unfair trade practices as major obstacles to industrial expansion.

He indicated that the government would collaborate with the Bank of Ghana and other financial institutions to develop tailored financing windows for manufacturers and expand credit support schemes for small and medium-sized enterprises.

On trade, he warned that smuggling, under-declaration and the influx of counterfeit goods were undermining local industries and would be treated as economic crimes, with tougher enforcement measures to follow.

Mr Mahama also reiterated plans to strengthen domestic production in sectors such as agro-processing, pharmaceuticals, textiles and steel, describing them as strategic pillars for job creation and value addition.

Urging a stronger partnership between the state and industry, he called on businesses to scale up production, generate employment and invest in skills development, while the government works to ensure policy stability and an improved business environment.

“The Ghana we seek will not be built by speeches,” he said. “It will be built by factories operating at scale.”
