- Romania begins shutdown of nuclear plant’s 2nd reactor amid low water levels on Danube River
Romania began a controlled shutdown of the second reactor at its Cernavoda nuclear power plant due to continued low water levels in the Danube River. The plant, which uses river water for cooling, accounts for about 20% of Romania’s electricity generation when fully operational. Officials stated that authorities believe the country's supply would be covered by alternative sources and imports following the shutdown.
