IMO the data in your link is outdated (seems like from 2012)
Here's another (Wikipedia)-link with current data: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electr...tor_in_Germany

Are you aware of that I wonder.
As for lignite and the "go green goal" ...
Our own consumption (in power-plants) was hugely reduced over the last decade
(to roughly only a third now, compared with 2008) -
and the current "no coal at all for electricity" timeline is 2038.

As for "imports of lignite from Greece"...
Lignite is basically the only resource, which is available "in abundance" in Germany.
Lignite from "german soil" is mined in roughly 3 times the quantity, compared to Greece.
We also export quite an amount of this stuff: https://trendeconomy.com/data/h2/Germany/2702

I can imagine, that nevertheless "lignite-imports from Greece" *did* happen,
but probably due to "buffering" of "larger, fixed export-contracts".
Related to that might be, that the "ownership" of several german lignite-mining-sites shifted to Czech-companies.
