00:00Romania has shut down its only nuclear power station because of extremely low water levels
00:05in the Danube River caused by prolonged hot weather affecting much of Europe.
00:11The second of the two 706 MW reactors at Sena Voda was disconnected from the Romanian electricity
00:17grid just before midday on Thursday.
00:20The plant, where two reactors produce about 20% of Romania's electricity, is not expected
00:27to be restarted within the next 10 days.
00:57We estimate that they were not going to이 on the fence, and its buraya reactor meaning
01:03that sending up to the reactor championship.
01:05The first reactor had already been shut down in July, until now Sena Voda had only been
01:23shut down once before in 2003.
01:27The first reactor had already been shut down in July...
01:27We don't have a problem with urgent security, we don't have a problem with security, we don't have a problem
01:32in which we affect the security of the nuclear security.
01:37But, the electric energy production can't work on this level in Dunar.
01:43Our equipment, large bombs, under a certain level, are deteriorated, destroyed, and at that time,
01:51we do much worse because a repair of a pump lasts for six months, seven months, one year, and then
01:59it will be much worse.
02:01Earlier this week, authorities tried to increase the water flow to the plant by sinking barges looted with rocks in
02:07the river.
02:08According to energy experts, the loss of production will push Romania to have larger and more expensive imports.
02:15We do not have a problem with that.
02:17We do not have a problem with that.
02:28We do not have a problem with climate risk.
02:29What do we do at 2 degrees?
02:31Temperature increase at 3 degrees, 10 days, 20, 30.
02:35We open production.
02:37We put batteries, because batteries on batteries can be installed quite quickly.
02:43And a industrial consumer can have this kind of approach.
02:47Climate change is driving up temperatures around the world,
02:50but particularly, in Europe, the fastest warming continent, heating up twice as fast as the global average,
02:57according to the Copernicus Climate Service.
03:00Linkedin coppers at the 9001 market.
03:02And in Europe it will bring to the 501 market on the planet.
