Hungary's Paks nuclear power plant is scheduled to undergo a complete shutdown between late Sunday and Monday due to a significant drop in the water levels of the Danube River. This event marks the first time the facility will experience a total suspension of operations in its 44-year history.
Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar confirmed the timeline for the shutdown. The facility relies on the Danube for cooling purposes, and the current environmental conditions have necessitated this unprecedented operational pause.
