Enclave Power Company (EPC) is Ghana’s only privately-owned power distribution company. EPC operates 165 MVA and 132 MVA Bulk Supply Points (BSPs) that supply energy to its valued customers in the Tema Free Zones Enclave and the Dawa Industrial Park, respectively.
EPC has an annual average energy distribution of 315GWh (based on 2025 actuals), maintaining an average monthly uptime of 99.5% per BSP. The company serves 175 multinational and local manufacturing companies located in the Tema Free Zones Enclave and the Dawa Industrial Park.
Among its distinguished clientele are multinational blue-chip companies such as Cargill Ghana, Barry Callebaut, and Cocoa Touton Processing Company Limited, which are three of the world’s largest cocoa processing companies. EPC also powers three of the largest steel mills in the country, B5 Plus and Ferro Fabrik Limited, as well as Rider Steel Ghana Limited, with a combined maximum demand exceeding 60 MVA.
Connected to the national grid via GRIDCo’s transmission lines, the enclave power substation receives electrical energy at 161kV and steps it down to 34.5kV, 11.5kV and 0.415kV energy levels. Since the commissioning of the substation, EPC has endeavoured to supply the most reliable and stable energy to its numerous customers within the enclave and currently supplies electricity to over 100 customers within its operational area.
The Dawa Substation is the second substation to be built, owned, and operated by EPC. In 2016, work started on a 132MVA substation being the first phase of the proposed 393MVA capacity substation at Dawa. The project came to completion in 2018, and the station was commissioned in September of the same year. This substation was constructed by breaking into the 330kV WAPP (West African Power Pool) line. The WAPP line is the single 330kV power line running from Cote d’Ivoire through to Nigeria.
The WAPP line, when fully completed, will tie in strategic generators from participating countries to produce the most reliable, secured, and stable energy for the sub-region. By strategically placing our substation on this line, we will be able to provide all our customers with reliable and stable power as EPC guarantees an uptime/availability of 99%.
A – Kilowatt Hour Reading (Kwh) displayed on the meter which is stored at the end of the current month.
B – Kilowatt Hour Reading (Kwh) displayed on the meter which is stored at the end of the previous month.
C – The difference between the present and previous Kwh reading from the meter (A – B)
D – Factor by which actual energy consumption has been divided to accommodate reading on display digit
E – Actual energy consumption for the current month (C x D = E)
F – Peak demand recorded within a month on the meter display
G – Factor by which the actual peak demand has been divided to accommodate reading on display digit
H – Actual peak demand within a month (H = F x G)
I – Average power factor recorded in a month
J – Threshold power factor set by PURC
K – The difference between threshold power factor and average power factor (J – I)
L – The rate given per customer category multiplied by the KWH consumption for the month (rate x E = L)
M – The rate given per customer category multiplied by the Max. KVA for the month (rate x H = M)
N – The PF surcharge is given only when the power factor is below 0.95 (K x M = N)
O – The sum of the KWH charge and the PF surcharge (L + N = O)
P – Total amount outstanding from previous bills
Q – Amount billed for the month
R – Service charge
S – The sum of the billed amount and the service charge (Q + R = S)
T – The total amount billed for the month
U – The sum of the total amount outstanding and the amount billed for the month (P + T = U)
