France was the main importer of electricity to Germany in 2021, with almost 5.3 gigawatts of power capacity feeding into the German grid that year. Austria and the Netherlands followed with over five and four gigawatts of electricity exporting capacity to Germany. The imports from France, Austria, the Netherlands, and Belgium were calculated using the flow-based market coupling algorithm, while the imports from other countries were determined by the Net Transfer Capacity (NTC) calculation.
