PURC names GIMPA among research and training partners for utility regulation

In March 2025 the Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC), which regulates Ghana’s electricity and water utilities, launched strategic partnerships with GIMPA, UPSA, the International Growth Centre and the African Forum for Utility Regulators.

The partnerships are intended to produce research, policy dialogue and training in emerging regulatory areas. GIMPA’s relationship with PURC is anchored in the GIMPA-PURC Centre of Excellence in Public Utility Regulation, set up under a memorandum of understanding between the two institutions.
