Mahama bets big on energy at UN, vows 30 percent renewables

Ghana announced its National Energy Compact through the Mission 300 program at the Bloomberg Philanthropies Global Forum in New York. President John Dramani Mahama partnered with the World Bank to present the initiative during United Nations General Assembly meetings. The compact establishes four major goals for transforming the nation's energy sector. Officials plan to increase renewable energy from 4 percent to 10 percent by 2026, and 30 percent by 2030.

The government will seek large-scale investment for energy access, and infrastructure improvements. Clean cooking solutions will replace traditional fuel methods under the new framework. Energy development will create jobs, and boost economic growth across the country. Mission 300 represents a continental effort to provide electricity to 300 million Africans by 2030.
