Corporate Profile

Nuclear Power Ghana (NPG) was established in 2018 as the Owner/Operator of Ghana’s first proposed Nuclear Power Plant. In July 2019, NPG was duly registered under the Companies Code of Ghana as a Limited Liability Company. NPG is housed in BPA Heights II in Accra.

As the Owner/Operator, NPG is responsible for project development and feasibility, plant and site licensing, regulatory compliance, construction, and commissioning, as well as ensuring that the plant is operational, maintained, and decommissioned in compliance with international best practices.

NPG’s activities commenced when some selected staff of Volta River Authority (VRA), Bui Power Authority (BPA), and the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission (GAEC) were identified and seconded to form its initial core staff with Ing. Richard Nii Agyemfra Badger, Deputy Chief Executive (Engineering & Operations) of VRA, as the first Executive Director.

Considering the scope of NPG’s operations and the nationalistic nature of the Nuclear Power Programme, NPG associates and partners with several international and national organisations such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Association of Ghana Industries (AGI), Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo), Ghana Institution of Engineering (GhIE), Energy Commission, Ghana Geological Survey Authority (GGSA), Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) and other State Agencies to achieve the objectives of the Nuclear Project.

The overall policy decision, direction and strategy of NPG is exercised by an 8-member Board. The members of the Board include Heads of Sponsoring Institutions involved in Ghana’s Energy Sector.

NPG is headed by an Executive Director, who ensures that its mission, objectives, and Board’s directives are effectively promoted to deliver Ghana’s first Nuclear Power Plant.

The Executive Director directs strategies that support and enhance organisational operations and supervises the three key Departments that form the transitional organisational structure, namely: Project Management, Engineering Development, and Public Affairs.

Key to its business tenets, NPG is committed to Safety, Transparency, Accountability, Teamwork, and Excellence as cherished values.
