Centrala nucleară de la Cernavodă, pusă în funcțiune în 1996. De ce e importantă apa Dunării pentru reactoare? • Newsweek România

The Cernavodă Nuclear Power Plant, operational since 1996, relies on the Danube River for cooling. Recent low water levels have prompted military intervention to redirect water to maintain operations. The plant generates about 20% of Romania's electricity and is crucial for energy supply. Future plans include completing reactors 3 and 4 by 2031, while Unit 1 will undergo modernization starting in 2027.
