“Nuclearelectrica informs its shareholders and investors that Units 1 and 2 of Cernavoda operate within normal parameters and under nuclear safety conditions, unaffected by the decrease of the level of the Danube river reported recently by the National Institute of Hydrology and Water Management,” the company said in a statement.
Thus, the energy production will not be impacted by this cause, Nuclearelectrica notes.
Moreover, the safety of the nuclear power plant will not be affected even in the case of an extremely low level of the Danube river, the company added.
Nuclearelectrica operates Romania’s sole nuclear power plant in Cernavoda, whose two 700-megawatt reactors cover around 18% of the country’s electricity consumption.
