MINISTRY OF ENERGY AND GREEN TRANSITION PARTNERS GHANA COMMERCIAL BANK TO REVAMP GHANA CYLINDER MANUFACTURING COMPANY

Wednesday, 12th March 2025. The Ministry of Energy and Green Transition, in collaboration with key stakeholders, has initiated plans to revamp the Ghana Cylinder Manufacturing Company (GCMC) to enhance its production capacity and overall efficiency.

In a high-level meeting chaired by the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Hon. John Abdulai Jinapor, discussions were held with the Ghana National Gas Company (Ghana Gas) and Ghana Commercial Bank (GCB) on forging a strategic partnership to provide the necessary support for GCMC’s full-scale operations.

Hon. Jinapor underscored the significant potential of GCMC to contribute to the local manufacturing industry and the government's clean energy agenda. He emphasized the need to revitalize the company and position it as a key player in the production of quality LPG cylinders for both domestic and industrial use.

To facilitate this transformation, the Minister announced the formation of a committee to develop a comprehensive roadmap for cabinet consideration. If approved, a Joint Project Implementation Committee, comprising representatives from the Ministry of Energy, Ghana Gas, GCMC, and the Ministry of Finance will oversee the successful execution of the revitalization plan.

The meeting was attended by key stakeholders, including Mr. Abdul-Rahman Mankir, the Acting Managing Director of GCMC; Madam Judith Blay, Acting CEO of Ghana Gas; Dr. Robert Lartey, Deputy CEO of Ghana Gas; Alhaj Farihan Alhassan, Managing Director of Ghana Commercial Bank; and officials from the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition.

The Ministry remains committed to strengthening local manufacturing, ensuring energy security, and promoting sustainable industrial growth in Ghana.

POWER SUB SECTOR

Ghana’s power supply sources are from hydroelectricity, thermal fueled by crude oil, natural gas and diesel, solar and also imports from La Cote D’Ivoire. Ghana also exports power to Togo, Benin and Burkina Faso. Ongoing grid expansions would allow further exports to other neighboring countries in the sub region.

PETROLEUM SECTOR

The petroleum industry is typically categorized into three segments; Upstream, Midstream and Downstream. For the purposes of regulation in Ghana, the industry is divided into Upstream and downstream subsectors which cover activities from the exploration and production of petroleum through refining, storage, transportation, to the marketing of petroleum products.
