Hungary's Paks nuclear plant may shut down as Danube hits record low

Hungary's Paks nuclear power plant, which supplies nearly half the country's electricity, may be forced to shut down as early as this weekend due to record-low water levels in the Danube River. The Hungarian government has prepared restrictions for industry, transport and public administration in case of a power shortage. The situation poses a serious threat to the country's energy security.
