Forță majoră pentru contractele de energie la Nuclearelectrica, pe fondul secetei de pe Dunăre

Nuclearelectrica has declared force majeure on electricity contracts due to severe drought affecting the Danube, impacting cooling water supply for its Cernavodă nuclear plant. The company received notices from the Constanța Chamber of Commerce, leading to a controlled shutdown of Unit 1 and potential shutdown of Unit 2. This situation could significantly affect Romania's energy supply, as both units provide about 20% of the national electricity needs. Nuclearelectrica aims to minimize impacts on contractual partners and will communicate updates based on hydrological conditions.
