The policy places significant emphasis on developing solar energy as part of Ghana's renewable energy strategy, with specific goals to increase solar power installations. It highlights solar energy's potential to provide reliable electricity, particularly in rural areas, aiming to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
The Renewable Energy Standard and Labelling (Solar Panels) Regulation, 2022 in Ghana establishes mandatory standards for the energy efficiency and performance of solar panels sold in the country. This regulation requires that all solar panels undergo testing and certification by the Energy Commission to ensure they meet specified criteria.
