Ukrainian company AES Paksh keeps electricity supply running through a power outage in the Danube

• Peter Madyar said that the AES Paksh nuclear power plant has been operating for 44 years.
• Reason – the plant’s water intake is located in the Danube, which makes it possible for the plant’s cooling system to operate.
• It is planned to extend the operating period of the plant; however, the company has to be able to do so with the support of the government.

The AES Paksh power plant has been operating for 44 years. It uses a single water intake for cooling, and the cooling system is provided by the Danube. The plant’s cooling system is run by Peter Madyar.

According to the words, the plant’s water intake is located in the Danube, which makes it possible for the plant’s cooling system to operate. Madyar said that the plant’s cooling system is located at a depth of 1.5 meters.

The AES Paksh was built in the 1980s and has been operating since 1983. The plant has a capacity of 1,200 megawatts. According to the materials, the station’s electrical output is 40% of the total capacity of the Hungarian electricity system.

In the materials it is noted that, over the course of several years, the plant’s water intake was used for cooling, which allowed the plant to operate normally. In addition, it is stated that the plant’s cooling system uses water from the Danube.

In the materials it is also stated that, in order to cool the plant, the station uses water from the Danube, which is supplied through a pipeline. Madyar said that the AES Paksh plant has been operating since 1983 and that the plant’s cooling system uses water from the Danube.

According to the materials, the plant’s cooling system is designed so that it can operate even if the water level in the Danube changes. Madyar said that AES Paksh may be forced to shut down if the water level drops too low.

In the materials it is also stated that, if the water level in the Danube drops, the plant may have to reduce its electricity generation. Madyar said that the plant’s cooling system uses water from the Danube and that it is designed to operate in conditions where the water level changes.
