Ghana’s Energy Transition and Investment Plan (ETIP), launched in 2023, offers a pathway to achieve net zero by 2060 while meeting the country’s energy needs and balancing socio-economic development objectives.

To aid the private sector, investors, and other stakeholders in navigating the manufacturing policy and regulatory landscape in Ghana, this guide offers insights on two key areas:

  • Considerations for OEMs in establishing a renewable energy (RE) manufacturing company: applicable laws, processes and institutions to engage.
  • Overview of the domestic green manufacturing policy landscape: available incentives, stakeholders and governance.

 

Key highlights of a net-zero aligned pathway include:

90%

of 2060 abatement is driven by renewables, low-carbon hydrogen, battery EVs, and clean cookstoves, anchoring an orderly transition.

15x

growth in power demand by 2060, driven by economic expansion and electrification, with solar PV meeting most of it, reaching 150 GW.

90%

of vehicles in Ghana are electric by 2050, achieving full fossil fuel vehicle replacement by 2060.

400k

net new jobs by 2060, driven by rising energy investments and economic growth as part of a Net Zero scenario.

This guide is not designed to be an exhaustive resource but rather offers a preliminary understanding of the sector landscape. It forms part of a series of country-specific guides for each of Africa Renewable Energy Manufacturing Initiative’s (Africa REMI) focus countries.
