Background

Resolution 156/2026 updated Cuba's manufactured and piped gas tariffs as part of the same 16 July 2026 price package that raised bottled cooking-gas prices 64% under the companion Resolution 155/2026.

The exact new piped-gas figures were not published in the state-media sweep of the announcement, so the scale of the manufactured-gas increase relative to the bottled-gas rise is not yet established. Both resolutions came from Cuba's Ministry of Finance and Prices, which publicly attributed the increases to the 'recrudecimiento del bloqueo' (escalating blockade) rather than internal supply management.

As a companion measure to Resolution 155/2026, it forms part of a wider domestic energy price package rolled out during a period when Cuba's National Grid had already suffered three total collapses in eight days.
