The Gold Fields Ghana Foundation has donated nine transformers worth approximately GH¢1.098 million to address power supply issues in communities facing frequent outages in Tarkwa-Nsuaem and Prestea Huni-Valley municipalities. The transformers, valued at varying capacities including 100kVA, 250kVA, 315kVA and 500kVA, will be installed in communities like Awudua, Abekoase, Samahu and Benso, as well as supporting the Tarkwa and Aboso (T&A) Stadium.
The donated equipment aims to alleviate inadequate distribution capacity, power interruptions, and pressure on the local electrical network. This intervention is a part of Gold Fields Ghana's broader commitment to supporting essential community infrastructure, with the Foundation having already invested over US$113.20 million across various development sectors in Ghana.
