Seriously though, you're wrong. Electrical consumption has significantly DECREASED over the last years. That's why energy savings are one of the biggest factors in the mix. The trend is very likely to continue rather than reverse.

I couldn't find any data that says the electricity consumption in Germany decreased over the past few years, other than this
junk quoted from the CIA World Factbook.
EIA requires us to pay for their data, so I might need the sauce please.

Rest assured that if there should ever be the risk of shortages, the power-down of the nuclear plants would rather be delayed than blacking out anyone ... in fact, for the time being, one large nuclear plant is supposed to remain on cold standby for some time, to make sure there's a fallback plan just in case.
