In Ghana, dumsor (Akan pronunciation: [dum sɔ] 'off and on') is a persistent, irregular, and unpredictable electric power outage. The frequent Ghanaian blackouts are caused by power supply shortage. Ghanaian generating capacity by 2015 was 400-600 megawatts, less than Ghana needed. Ghanaian electricity distributors regularly shed load with rolling blackouts. The re-introduction of dumsor in 2019 without publishing the requisite load shedding schedule came along with the term dumsaa meaning off for a considerably long time or off all the time.
