Magyar Péter made an extraordinary announcement: the Paks Nuclear Power Plant will shut down, and a schedule for voluntary closure will be necessary.
The Paks Nuclear Power Plant, for the first time in its 44-year history, will be able to completely shut down electricity production due to the record low water level in the Danube, according to Peter Magyar, who announced the news from the MAVIR national control center. According to the Prime Minister, a total of 2400 megawatts of domestic generating capacity may be lost within 24-72 hours, so the government is requesting that industrial consumers and the public voluntarily reduce their consumption.
