Insights by Echo AI
The Krško nuclear power plant, jointly operated by Slovenia and Croatia, is reducing its power output due to high temperatures in the Sava River, which is used for cooling. The plant currently produces almost 60% of Slovenia's electricity. A gradual reduction in power began on August 5, 2026, initially to 80%, and could be further reduced if conditions persist or worsen. This is not the first time the plant has had to reduce power due to similar conditions in the Sava River; in 2003, power was reduced by 90%. Despite these reductions, the Slovenian Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy has assured that there is sufficient electricity and supply is guaranteed.
