Germany is a net power exporter

This Wikipedia article says they re-export natural gas, and sell electricity they produce to other countries, but they're heavily dependent on outside sources of coal, natural gas, and oil. "In 2021, Germany imported 63.7% of its energy."

Right. I could have been clearer. When I said "power", I meant electricity. "Energy" includes transportation and non-electricity industrial energy. And there's not a lot of oil wells in Germany.
