Arthur Energy Advisors, Consultancy Services for Energy Sector in Ghana

“Arthur Energy Advisors was established in anticipation of an increase in demand for professional advisory services. At the time the energy sectors of several African countries were going through sector reforms that was expected to prepare them for private sector participation, in most cases for the first time.”

“We were certain that with the vast experience and local insight of our team, Arthur Energy Advisors could partner with the global players to ensure that advice given was relevant and that the Sub-region and Ghana derived optimum results from the reforms that were being undertaken. Most of the time, when utilities would require services firms, they would use entirely expat firms. These firms had great thoughts, but were not indigenous to the region and could therefore not adequately adapt solutions to suit the context within which there were to be implemented. Our team felt strongly that some guidance was needed to ensure that local perspective were effectively incorporated in recommendations being offered. Arthur Energy Advisors was established to match global players and to partner with them to deliver optimum results for the Sub-Region. Arthur Energy Advisors has had the opportunity to work on some significant projects, many power projects but also policy work both in Ghana and the Sub-Region and we are very pleased with the progress we are making. One of the projects we were extensively involved in was the 340MW Kpone Thermal Power Plant, one of the largest project -financed IPP in Africa. The plant is expected to be commissioned in 2018,” says Harriette Amissah-Arthur, Executive Partner at Arthur Energy Advisors.
