Dunărea, la cote critice: Ungaria oprește centrala nucleară Paks și ia măsuri drastice pentru a economisi curent (VIDEO)

Hungary's only nuclear power plant, Paks, is facing a potential total shutdown due to critically low water levels in the Danube, affecting electricity production. Authorities are implementing mandatory consumption reductions, including halting freight trains and encouraging remote work for public employees. The situation has worsened, with the plant's output dropping to 240 MW from a normal capacity of 2,000 MW. The government is considering further restrictions on large industrial consumers, while water supply remains largely uninterrupted. The shutdown could last weeks, leading to significant financial implications for Hungary.
