Energy exchanges in 2021 were mostly as an exporter

A country's energy exchanges fluctuate every year, depending on factors such as exchange capacity, market coupling and the influence of energy prices. In 2021, the net balance of electricity exchanges among ENTSO-E countries and with their neighbouring countries (who are non-member states) was as an exporter with more than 8 TWh. The largest exporters include France, Sweden, Germany and Norway, with export balances of 43 TWh, 25 TWh, 20 TWh and 17 TWh, respectively. On the other hand, the largest importers were Italy and Finland, with 43 TWh and 18 TWh, respectively.

The data is governed by Regulation (EU) No 543/2013, and is obtained from real-time systems and therefore differs from the consolidated data used for the specific case of Spain at a national level, which is obtained using a power measurement system.
