Rinul, aproape de un minim istoric. Industria germană riscă să reducă producția din cauza nivelului scăzut al apei

The extremely low water levels of the Rhine River are significantly impacting freight transport in Germany, potentially leading to reduced industrial production. Experts warn that certain sections of the river may face complete disruption, as road and rail transport cannot accommodate the usual cargo volumes. Currently, vessels can only carry about 20% of their normal load due to the drought, which has been exacerbated by heatwaves. This situation poses serious supply chain risks for various sectors, particularly those reliant on river transport for essential goods.
