The government has decided to roll out a series of tough new measures to avert an economic crisis in the face of a volatile energy market.

In light of the skyrocketing prices of fuel oil amid the war in Ukraine, Bangladesh is suspending operations at diesel-run power plants. Fuel stations will also be closed for a day every week.

According to the Power Development Board's estimates, gas fuels 50.84 percent of the total power generation, furnace oil 28 percent and diesel 6 percent, while coal-fired plants produce 7.89 percent of the country's electricity. The new energy-saving policy is likely to create a shortfall of around 1,500 megawatts of power a day.

To offset the deficit, the authorities are set to ration electricity through rolling power cuts for up to two hours every day. The new load shedding regime will start on Tuesday. Electricity distribution companies will announce area-wise timetables for outages.

The decisions were made during a meeting at the Prime Minister's Office on Monday.

The other steps that are being considered include cutting down office hours, moderating the use of air conditioners and reducing the fuel consumption of vehicles
