The Anloga District Assembly recently hosted a high-level delegation from the Volta River Authority (VRA), led by Madam Rhodda Arthur, Principal Community Relations Officer, accompanied by a team of engineers and consultants. The visit focused on advancing discussions for a strategic renewable energy initiative centered on wind power generation. The project targets three key communities within the district, underscoring VRA’s commitment to sustainable development and clean energy expansion in the Volta Region.
According to feasibility studies conducted in 2012/2013, the proposed wind power project is expected to generate 75 megawatts of electricity upon full implementation and completion.

The delegation engaged constructively with Assembly officials, sharing updates on project planning and addressing potential community impacts.
In his remarks, the District Chief Executive commended the VRA team for their ongoing partnership with the Anloga District Assembly in driving development initiatives. He highlighted the importance of such collaborations in transforming local communities through innovative energy solutions. The meeting reinforced the mutual benefits of public-private and institutional cooperation in delivering impactful infrastructure projects.
The Anloga District Assembly assured the VRA delegation of its full collaboration and unwavering support to ensure the successful implementation of this vital renewable energy project. This commitment reflects the Assembly’s dedication to sustainable progress and improved livelihoods for residents. Stakeholders anticipate continued engagement as the project moves forward, positioning Anloga as a key player in Ghana’s green energy future.
