That's already not true.
> In 2020, Poland produced 152,208 GWH from primary energy sources, relying heavily on coal and fossil fuels. Hard coal, accounted for 47% of primary energy production in 2020, followed by lignite (24.9 %), natural gas (9.1 %), crude oil (1.6%) and renewables (10.75 %). More than 6% of Poland’s energy was produced by industrial power plants.
In Germany there were 560,000 GWH produced with 16.2% from lignite and 7.5% from hard coal.
According to my napkin calculations that means Germany produced approximately 1.4 times the amount of energy by coal.
