Electricity.
If you lose electricity most people lose access to:
Hot water
Running water (if you have a well)
Air conditioning
Indoor heat
Television
Internet
Indoor lighting
And hot meals if you don't have gas.

Losing electricity would cut you off from almost all of your luxuries as we've become completely dependent on it over the last century or so.
