Hungary is facing a “critical five days” as drought and extreme heat force the Paks nuclear power plant to reduce operations, Prime Minister Peter Magyar said.⁣
⁣
The plant, which supplies around half of Hungary’s electricity, has cut output after falling Danube River levels affected its cooling system.⁣
⁣
Magyar said engineers had the situation under control but warned the plant could be fully shut down later this week if water levels continue to drop.⁣
⁣
With temperatures forecast to exceed 42C, authorities are urging businesses and households to reduce electricity use during peak hours.⁣
