To solve major production deficits, Mr. Adam Mutawakilu, Acting Managing Director of Ghana Water Limited (GWL), has carried out an extensive evaluation of the main water treatment facilities in Accra. He spoke with engineers at the Weija, Kpong, and Accra desalination plants on the tour to discuss operational issues and possible fixes. This proactive action came after management realized that there were serious issues affecting the water supply and that immediate action was required to close the gap between supply and demand.
Accra's daily consumption is 220 million gallons, while its production capability is 130 million gallons, resulting in a significant water deficit. 90 million gallons are thus left short, underscoring the pressing need for improved infrastructure and operational efficiency. Mr. Mutawakilu underlined how critical it is to respond quickly to operational setbacks and equipment maintenance problems that impede maximum.
The Acting Deputy Managing Director in charge of operations and Mr. Mutawakilu's group of Chief Managers accompanied him on his tour. They also went to key locations, such as the Mile 18 Central Workshop, which is where crucial pipe, pump, and drainage system manufacturing and repairs are done. Additionally inspected was the Central Store, which holds necessary supplies and chemicals. The resources required to guarantee the prompt repair of outdated pumps and other components essential to enhancing Accra's water supply are being made available.
To guarantee that locals have access to a dependable and sustainable water supply, Mr. Mutawakilu reiterated GWL's dedication to putting both immediate and long-term solutions into place. To increase productivity and lower water losses, the company intends to implement cutting-edge water treatment technologies. To increase production capacity in tandem with the expanding population and industrial growth, plans are also in place to renovate outdated infrastructure and enlarge current treatment facilities
