Şedinţă de criză la Comandamentul Energetic. Centrala de la Cernavodă rămâne închisă până în octombrie. Nu plouă pe Dunăre
Cristian Bușoi, Secretary of State in the Ministry of Energy, stated that the national energy system is operating normally, despite the shutdown of the Cernavodă nuclear plant. The Danube's flow remains at historical lows, with a potential increase expected around September 15. A new assessment for restarting the reactors will occur after this date. Authorities are preparing for winter energy needs, with sufficient coal reserves and stable regional markets. However, energy imports will be necessary during peak hours due to the nuclear plant's closure. A three-phase emergency plan has been announced to ensure the safe operation of Cernavodă if the Danube's flow decreases further, including the deployment of barges and pumps for cooling.
