As of August 2026, Bangladesh is facing a severe nationwide gas and power supply crisis. Adverse weather in the Bay of Bengal halted LNG offloading at the Summit terminal, while technical failures at the Excelerate Energy terminal exacerbated the situation. The resulting shortfall of 250 million cubic feet of gas per day has caused widespread public suffering, power rationing, and significant economic disruption in Dhaka, affecting residential cooking, industrial production, CNG-run vehicles, and emergency ambulance services. CNG filling stations in Dhaka are facing long queues due to the scarcity.
