Hungary shuts second reactor amid drought
Hungary has shut down the second of four reactors at the Paks nuclear plant due to low water levels in the Danube River, which has reduced its output to less than a quarter of its total capacity of 2,000 megawatts. The Prime Minister indicated that the country will be forced to close the plant entirely for the first time in its history this week because of the drought, which is causing a shortage of water necessary for cooling. The plant accounts for 40% of Hungary's electricity production.
