France has temporarily shut down three nuclear reactors due to extreme heat and drought, which have caused water levels in rivers to drop. The affected reactors are located at the Chooz and Cattenom nuclear power plants in the Ardennes and Moselle regions. The reactors rely on river water for cooling, and their shutdown is part of environmental water management measures. EDF, the French electricity distribution company, has announced these closures.
