Summary

Hungary began restarting a second turbine at the Paks nuclear plant on Monday after the Danube's water level, which cools the facility, rose 19 centimetres from a record low set the previous week amid prolonged heat and drought in Europe. Prime Minister Peter Magyar said the government is preparing longer-term fixes, including a review of the plant's planned expansion and an August 31 tender for 700 megawatts of wind capacity.
