Bangladesh is facing increased pressure on its power supply system as a continuing heatwave drives electricity demand higher across the country.
With rising temperatures, people are relying more on fans and air conditioners, leading to a surge in electricity usage. This demand is especially high during peak hours, putting stress on the national grid.
Energy authorities are monitoring the situation closely. In some areas, load management measures may be introduced to maintain balance between supply and demand.
Urban centers like Dhaka are experiencing the highest pressure due to dense populations and increased energy consumption.
Officials have urged citizens to use electricity responsibly to help reduce strain on the system during this critical period.
