Gomoa Onyaadze Solar Power Station

Gomoa Onyaadze Solar Power Station be solar power plant wey dey work and connect to de national grid, and e dey produce 20 megawatts (27,000 hp) of electric power for Ghana. De power station wey private people own dey sell ein electric power give Power Distribution Services Ghana (PDSG), wey before dem dey call Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), under long-term agreement to buy de power.

 Location 
De power station dey Gomoa West District insyd Central Region of Ghana, south of Otaw town, for de road wey connect Otaw den Mankwadze, near de Atlantic coast.
