加纳总统 John Dramani Mahama 先生透露，过去九年间该国已投入逾 80 亿美元资金填补能源领域的财政缺口。3 月中旬在与工会组织的总统对话会上，总统指出，仅 2025 年政府就支付了约 15.7 亿美元清偿历史债务，这进一步加剧了财政负担。

他表示，长期存在的低效问题——尤其在电费收缴和分配环节——持续削弱行业活力并消耗关键资源。总统解释道，这些亏损正制约着国家提升工资水平、改善工作条件和扩大社会保障的能力。

"过去九年里，加纳仅在能源领域就花费了超过 80 亿美元弥补资金短缺。而单是 2025 年，政府就支付了约 15.7 亿美元处理历史债务。"

"与此同时，收费系统和计量环节的低效问题仍在持续破坏整个能源行业。"

"这些亏损直接影响着经济提升薪资、改善劳动条件和扩大社会保障的能力。" 总统说道。

总统透露政府正在推行改革，旨在重塑能源行业纪律并提升整体效率。

Mahama: Ghana Spent $8bn to Plug Energy Sector Deficits in 9 Years

President John Dramani Mahama has revealed that Ghana has spent more than $8 billion over the past nine years to address financial shortfalls in the energy sector.

Speaking during a Presidential Encounter with Organised Labour on March 17, the president noted that in 2025 alone, government paid about $1.57 billion to settle legacy debts, further deepening the fiscal burden.

According to him, persistent inefficiencies, particularly in revenue collection and distribution, continue to weaken the sector and drain critical resources.

He explains that these losses are limiting the country’s ability to improve wages, enhance working conditions and expand social protection.

‘Over the past nine years, Ghana has spent more than $8 billion to address financial shortfalls only in the energy sector. And in 2025, alone, the government paid approximately $1.57 billion to settle legacy debts.

“Meanwhile, inefficiencies, especially in revenue collection, at the billing as well as metering, continue to undermine the whole energy sector.

“These losses directly impact the economy’s ability to improve wages, enhance working conditions, and expand social protection,” he said.

President Mahama revealed that government is pursuing reforms aimed at restoring discipline and improving efficiency across the energy sector.
