Romania closes last nuclear reactor amid Danube low
Romania has shut down its last nuclear reactor at the Cernavoda plant due to record-low Danube river levels caused by drought, which also affected power supplies for neighboring Moldova that relies on Romanian electricity. The drought has led to the closure of one reactor earlier and the second reactor's shutdown due to ongoing water level drops, impacting 20% of Romania's power output. European countries, including France and Hungary, are experiencing similar challenges with nuclear power shortages linked to drought and extreme heat.
