Ilie Bolojan: "Românii să reducă consumul de curent electric seara. Va trebui să importăm masiv" • Newsweek România

Interim Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan urged Romanians to reduce evening electricity consumption due to the shutdown of the Cernavodă nuclear plant, which will last 1-2 weeks. He highlighted the impact of high air conditioning use on electricity demand and warned of significant power losses. Bolojan also criticized former Health Minister Alexandru Rogobete for his role in the Sanitas strike, claiming it was based on misinformation. The current situation is exacerbated by low water levels in the Danube, affecting power generation. Bolojan called for increased reliance on gas, solar, and wind energy, as well as imports to meet demand.
