Hungary's Paks nuclear plant could be powered down on Thursday or Friday because of low water levels on the Danube River, which the plant uses for cooling water, Prime Minister Peter Magyar was quoted as saying by MTI on Thursday.
Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magjar announced today that due to the extremely low water level of the Danube, the Pakš nuclear power plant could be completely shut down during the day or tomorrow.
Due to the low water level of the Danube, the complete shutdown of the nuclear power plant, and thus the cessation of electricity production, will become inevitable in the next 24-72 hours.
