One of the four reactors at Hungary’s Paks nuclear power plant shut down on Thursday morning when an automatic defence mechanism kicked in, the plant said in a statement.

The incident, which experts are investigating, had no safety implications, it said.

The plant has four 500-megawatt Soviet-made VVER reactors, which are operating on a 20-year lifetime extension.
