IMPROVING ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN GHANA’S INDUSTRIES: A CASE STUDY IN THE ACCRA METROPOLITAN AREA-GREATER ACCRA REGION

Introduction 

Energy is essential for the creation of wealth and improvement of social welfare; this means that, adequate and reliable supply of energy is required to ensure sustainable development. However, the use and conversion of primary energy most of the time results in waste and emission; they are harnessed from limited resources which are considered environmentally unsustainable. The increasing rate of environmental problems related to energy use has led to a growing  interest  in  issues  of  sustainable  development  thereby  leading  to  a  challenge  of decoupling of economic growth and energy use (environmental threats related to energy use). This ―decompling‖ between economic growth and energy use extends to the need of judicious use of resources, technology, appropriate incentives and strategic policy planning (IAEA, 2005).
