    sells energy to Germany(and others)

    Usually Germany is exporting more to France than it’s importing, 2023 is an exception this year it’s almost even, with a slight lead for France. Have some charts.

      I am aware of that but that’s due to Compulsive exporting by shunting the prices to near 0€ as there is overproduction on sunny days.

      if you look at the net value of exported vs imported electricity. Germany is strongly in deficit.

      Also the overproducion isn’t great cause he renewabke the LCOE is calculated at install time but the actual cost it’s larger as you end up giving away the electricity (Very difficult to assess on the free market)

      In addition to that Germany’s energy mix has 5-8x carbon intensity as that of France.

      The German solution isn’t economical and by far not ecological. hey but they do better than Poland so that’s something.
