Abstract
Energy organizations are undergoing gender transformations due to globalization, environmental changes, and sustainability. The Ghanaian energy organizations are dominated by male and masculine cultures. Women are few in the sector and active in the lower-paid, non-technical fields. Due to their minority status, collective frustration with expectations and aspirations motivated gender transformations in the energy sector of Ghana. Deploying a multiple case study design coupled with a qualitative approach, the paper found collective effort in promoting women in the energy sector of Ghana. A regime of expert platforms made up of ‘sisters in energy solidarity’ was also found, adopting gender strategic measures such as networking, mentorship, coaching programme, advocacy, and gender equity-driven energy initiatives aimed at re-engineering a shift in gender dynamics in the energy jobs of Ghana. This gender transformative regime among the energy work organizations implies inclusivity, diversity, alleviating women’s energy poverty, and a move towards achieving modern organizational status among the energy organizations in Ghana.
