Nexans Kabelmetal Ghana Ltd, the leader in the manufacturing of safe and quality cables in Ghana, has convened energy and industrial stakeholders for its first Grid Reliability Workshop, bringing together representatives from power generation, transmission and distribution, mining and industrial sectors, to explore practical ways to strengthen the reliability and resilience of Ghana’s electrical infrastructure.
Held under the theme “Grid Reliability – The Shift from Products to End-to-End Solutions,” the workshop highlighted the need to move beyond high-quality components towards integrated solutions that enhance network reliability and resilience. Discussions explored how reliable cable systems, real-time monitoring, smart anti-theft solutions and proactive fault detection can improve asset performance, anticipate disruptions and enable better-informed operational and investment decisions, while addressing the evolving needs of Ghana’s energy sector.
“For nearly six decades, Nexans Kabelmetal Ghana has played a key role in supporting the country’s energy and industrial development. Today, we are taking this commitment further by moving beyond cable manufacturing to deliver end-to-end solutions that make power networks more reliable, resilient and intelligent. By combining our deep understanding of the Ghanaian market with Nexans’ global expertise and innovation capabilities, we aim to help our customers improve network performance, anticipate failures and build infrastructure that supports Ghana’s long-term growth,” said Alexander Quarcoopome, CEO of Nexans Kabelmetal Ghana.
Moussa Kafal, Nexans group Global Offer Grid Senior Manager, joined local stakeholders to share perspectives on integrated grid solutions and the role of network observability. The sessions examined three complementary priorities: building networks correctly from the design and specification stage; making assets and network conditions visible; and translating that visibility into timely decisions throughout the asset lifecycle.
“A more reliable grid starts with getting the fundamentals right, but it also requires visibility into what is happening across the network. When operators can detect emerging issues earlier and use better data to guide decisions, they are better equipped to protect assets and maintain service continuity.” Said Moussa Kafal, Nexans Global Offer Grid senior manager.
The event created space for utilities, industrial customers and technical experts to exchange experience on their operational challenges and discuss approaches suited to local conditions.
“Improving grid reliability requires sustained collaboration across the electricity value chain. Exchanges like this create an opportunity to share operational experience and examine technologies and practices that could help strengthen network performance”, said Mr Adofo, Director of Innovation & Strategic Business Management, Electricity Company of Ghana.
As a pioneer in the industry, Nexans Kabelmetal Ghana is evolving beyond its role as a manufacturer and supplier of reliable electrical cables and services. We are an end-to-end solutions partner, helping customers improve asset performance, gain greater visibility over their infrastructure, and make better-informed operational and financial decisions.
Nexans Kabelmetal Ghana reaffirmed its commitment to supporting customers and industry partners with safe, reliable cable systems and integrated solutions designed for long-term network performance
