1.     INTRODUCTION

Ghana’s persistent energy crisis is exacerbated by the rapidly increasing population and corresponding rise in power usage, leading to more frequent power outages. Solar power system presents a promising solution to address this problem. However, the conventional method of setting up solar energy systems in Ghana involves importing bulky solar panels, resulting in higher import duties and logistical challenges. Moreover, these systems are often installed in fixed locations, which limits their flexibility in meeting electricity needs in various settings. For instance, there are numerous situations in Ghana where portable power is critically needed, such as powering police barriers on highways, supporting electoral commission ballot counting processes at night, and enabling students in remote areas to study or prepare for exams. Portable solar power systems can address these needs by providing a flexible and sustainable energy solution. By designing and deploying locally assembled, portable solar generators, Ghana can reduce import costs, engage local labor, and enhance the overall efficiency and accessibility of solar power across various sectors and locations. This approach not only supports the economy but also promotes the widespread adoption of renewable energy, paving the way for a more sustainable future.
