The sources are the same [1].

You can see the instant consumption today at 653g/kwh [2] and normalized over a month here 416g/kwh [3].

Values are also aligned with what other specialized sources estimate [4]

You can also extract similar numbers on the site of European Union itself [5]

It does not. These number account only for production.

Germany numbers considering consumption are generally better because most of its neighbours have cleaner electricity production than Germany (excepted Poland).
