This year is an anomaly because nuclear production was low because some power plants had to shut down for maintenance. Germany typically imports power from France.
if you consider physical exchange directly between France and Germany, on the average, France massively exports to Germany.
but most of the electricity shared between Germany and France goes through Swiss. Swiss has dams to store energy. Germany has many surplus of production with renewables. Swiss is used for transit. As a result, Germany is a net exportator of electricity to France.
You keep repeating this point but renewable energy HAS to be exported when production is over the grid absorption rate. And coal plants have to be on continuously to guarantee baseload due to you moronic energy policies. You can’t bring up a (cherripicked for a single extraordinary year) graph you don’t understand and think it’s a gotcha.
Not even mentioning the fact that France exports its energy too.

I love how we literally can’t do shit for ourselves here in Italy

I have found this nice article (in French) :

It’s … more complex than one picture.
The average idea is that :
Why do you use this tone?
