Krsko Nuclear Power Plant Halted Due to Malfunction
Zagreb, June 4 (CP) – A malfunction has been detected at the Krsko nuclear power plant owned jointly by Slovenia and Croatia and located some 50 kilometres from the Croatian border with Slovenia.
The plant had to be stopped while experts detect the problem and resolve it.
The Croatian Electricity Board (HEP) has informed customers that despite the problem there would be no shortage of power, as it would dip in its other energy resources.
Meanwhile, there had been no word of warning from the Croatian Environment Protection Ministry on how dangerous the problem may be, while at the same time the European Commission issued a warning to all EU countries of the incident and the possible implications.
There had been no word on whether the any dangerous substances had been released into the air.
