The new tariffs for utility services announced by the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) will take effect from today, Thursday, September 1, 2022.
The new tariffs include a 27.15% increase in electricity and 21.55% increase in water.
The utility service providers had requested for drastic upward review of tariffs to help them recover and sustain their operational costs.
Ghanaians have argued that the economic conditions would make it difficult to pay for such services.
