Hungary Boosts Efforts to Keep Only Nuclear Plant Running
The Hungarian Prime Minister, Peter Madiar, confirmed that the country's sole nuclear power plant, Paks, will continue to operate despite a wave of record heat that nearly led to its shutdown due to low water levels in the Danube River, which is used for cooling processes. The plant's capacity was gradually reduced as water flow declined, but engineering teams successfully managed to decrease the amount of water needed to ensure the continued operation of one of the vital turbines. The Ministry of Water Resources expects an improvement in water levels in the coming days. Meanwhile, the government is working to address any electricity shortages by increasing energy imports, encouraging consumers to conserve, and promoting reduced consumption during peak hours.
