The Volta River Authority has resumed visits to its generating stations to students, professionals, stakeholders, and the public.
A statement issued by the Public Affairs department yesterday said the initiative was part of “our broader effort to foster transparency, public engagement and education about our operations and contribution to Ghana’s energy sector.”
According to the statement, all visits will be carefully coordinated to ensure the safety of both visitors and staff, preserve the operational integrity of our installations and comply with all relevant regulatory requirements.
“To streamline and improve the overall effectiveness of the tours, a generation facility visit policy has been developed and approved for implementation. To embark on a tour of VRA generating facilities, a formal request must be made in a letter addressed to the Chief Executive for approval.
“The letter must be sent 10 working days ahead of the requested visit date to ensure adequate time is provided for preparatory actions.
“Once executive approval is granted you will be formally notified by VRA of the necessary processes and protocols to be followed to ensure pleasurable and safe tour experience.
“This will include the provision of identification for security checks, visit protocols to follow as well as the fees charged per age and/or category. VRA remains committed to add value to lives and maintain the highest safety standards as we power economies.”
