INTERVIU Legătura dintre criza de apă din Dunăre și centrala de la Cernavodă

Romania faces a potential nuclear energy crisis due to low Danube water levels affecting the Cernavoda nuclear plant. The first reactor has already been shut down, and the second may follow, risking 20% of the country's energy production. Recent rainfall has not significantly improved the situation, and historical droughts indicate a delicate balance. The director of the Romanian Waters Authority warns that without sufficient rainfall, energy imports may become necessary, impacting agriculture and transport. Biodiversity is also at risk, particularly in smaller water bodies.
