@collectifission OK, so I remembered wrong, and Germany was indeed a net importer, not an exporter. I apologize.

You, however, got it wrong, too: While 28.3TW might indeed sound a lot when compared to an LED bulb's consumption, it's actually only 6% of the electrical energy generated in Germany. And large parts of that was renewable energy from Scandinavia, rather than French NP. (So much, BTW, that Scandinavians got annoyed because their electricity got more expensive due to all the exports.)
