Your electrical production went from >5 million TJ in 2000 to ~3 million TJ in 2024. You seem to be relying on everyone else producing at times with no wind and no sun. Like cold winter nights when everyone else needs their power too. 70-80 Euro cents per kWh was unheard of just 5 years ago. It’s not even uncommon where I live now that you’ve removed what dependability your grid had.

Btw. you can stop addressing/blaming me; you have no idea where I reside.
My bad. I mixed up “energy” with “electricity”, which is not the same thing. Was looking at the domestic energy production graph (second line graph on mobile at least) at https://www.iea.org/countries/germany/energy-mix .
Edit: Your source states that Germany is importing 81% more electricity “now” (2024) than in the year 2000. Still “just” 5.8% net import, but seems (to me) as if my point still stands even if the numbers were the wrong ones.
