Centrala nucleară de la Paks se oprește complet, pentru prima dată în istoria sa de 44 de ani

Hungary's Paks nuclear power plant may shut down next week due to low Danube water levels, as announced by Prime Minister Péter Magyar. He indicated that the reactors would likely stop operating on Tuesday or Wednesday, following protocols that ensure safety. Although energy supply remains stable, imports will be necessary due to reduced production. Magyar emphasized the need for national solidarity and voluntary energy consumption limits from large companies. The situation is exceptional, with the plant currently producing significantly less power than its capacity. Safety measures are in place, including additional cooling pumps to manage the low water levels.
