The prime minister stressed that the government does not currently expect to impose mandatory restrictions on electricity use for households, despite concerns over strained generating capacity.
The prime minister thanked the Hungarian public for lowering electricity consumption on Saturday, saying the reductions were already producing measurable results.
PAKS RECOVERYMagyar said forecasts suggest Hungary is unlikely to receive the amount of rainfall needed in the coming days to allow the Paks Nuclear Power Plant to resume full operations.
The prime minister therefore renewed his appeal for households to limit electricity consumption during the evening peak period between 5:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m., when demand is highest.
The crisis has prompted emergency conservation measures and increased electricity imports as officials seek to prevent widespread power shortages.
