Addressing concerns, President Akufo-Addo emphasized that the construction of the thermal plant was entirely financed by the Volta River Authority (VRA).

The decision to relocate the thermal power plants to their current location in the Ashanti Region was part of the VRA's efforts to address the region's unreliable power supply.
