Criza apei continuă în capitala Ungariei. Locuitorilor li s-a cerut din nou să reducă consumul

Residents of Budapest are urged to conserve water due to low Danube levels affecting the city's supply. The water operator warns of worsening conditions if river levels continue to drop. While temporary increases in water levels are possible, insufficient rainfall may lead to further declines. Budapest Waterworks advises prioritizing essential water needs and postponing high-consumption activities. The city's water supply heavily relies on the Danube, and low river levels complicate water extraction. Previous calls for water conservation occurred during a heatwave, with daily consumption peaking at 640 million liters. The situation is critical in Dunabogdány, where daily water demand exceeds supply. Low Danube levels also impact the Paks nuclear power plant, prompting authorities to take measures to raise water levels.
