Unitatea 1 a Centralei Nucleare de la Cernavodă, oprită controlat din cauza nivelului foarte scăzut al Dunării

Nuclearelectrica announced that Unit 1 of the Cernavodă Nuclear Power Plant will be shut down due to unprecedented low water levels in the Danube. This decision is based on severe drought conditions and follows safety protocols. The company is monitoring the situation closely to ensure nuclear safety and reliability. The Danube's flow is expected to decrease significantly, impacting operations. Unit 1 has been operational since 1996 and has contributed to significant CO2 emissions reductions.
