Reuters: Schimbările climatice pun sub semnul întrebării viitorul centralelor nucleare. Soluțiile României

Climate change raises concerns about the future of nuclear power plants in Romania and Hungary, particularly due to low Danube water levels affecting cooling processes. Both countries are exploring solutions to adapt their nuclear facilities to increasingly extreme weather conditions. Hungary's Paks plant has significantly reduced output, while Romania's Cernavodă reactor was shut down due to insufficient cooling water. Proposed measures include building a submerged dam to raise water levels and modifying river channels to ensure adequate water supply for cooling. Both nations aim to expand nuclear energy production despite these challenges.
