A big reason for that is the missing Fehrman Belt fixed link currently under construction. The lack of that forces trains to add about an 1h 45min longer journey from Copenhagen to Hamburg.
Other then that the German grid is about as dirty as the US grid and Swedens and Denmarks are both much cleaner, so emissions should be lower.
It’s crazy to me that Germany still has such a dirty grid. I had a German economics professor like 20 years ago that was telling us all the aggressive actions Germany was taking to reach carbon neutrality. What happened?
