Germany also exports energy to Austria and elsewhere.

In fact, per year, Germany exports over 22 terawatt hours more than it imports:

For the past six years, Germany has been a net exporter of electricity. The Federal Statistical Office reports that Germany exported 66.6 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2012, while only importing 43.8 TWh via the European electricity grids. This surplus, 22.8TWh, has almost quadrupled the surplus in 2011.

And Austria is planning to stop all imports of nuclear-generated energy by 2015. Of course, the pro-nuke forces at the WSJ don?t think they can do it, but they didn?t think Germany would ever turn away from nukes.
