Cât de eficientă a fost detonarea controlată a stâncii de pe Brațul Bala al Dunării? Primele măsurători ale specialiștilor Apelor Române

Romanian authorities are implementing measures to increase the water level of the Old Danube, crucial for the Cernavodă Nuclear Power Plant's cooling system. Controlled detonation on the Bala Arm was a first step to stabilize water flow. Currently, 85% of the Danube's flow is directed to Bala, while only 15% reaches the Old Danube. Romania is under energy alert due to the shutdown of one nuclear unit, risking the second's operation. The government is discussing energy consumption reduction with major companies. Ongoing dredging and barge operations aim to redirect water flow to ensure energy production.
