Load shedding

Load shedding is when there isn’t enough electricity for everyone to use at the same time, so the power company turns off the power in different neighborhoods for a certain amount of time. This is a common problem in many countries, including Bangladesh.

Imagine you’re in the middle of cooking dinner or doing your homework when the lights suddenly go out. That’s what load shedding is like. It can be frustrating and inconvenient, especially during hot weather when you can’t use a fan or air conditioner.

Some people have backup generators or solar panels that can keep their lights and electronics on during a power cut. But these can be expensive, and not everyone can afford them. To make things better for everyone, the government needs to invest in building more power plants. These are like big factories that make electricity. The government also needs to improve the power lines that carry electricity from the power plants to our homes and businesses. With more power plants and better power lines, there will be enough electricity for everyone to use at the same time. That way, we won’t have to deal with power cuts as often.
