According to tennet.eu (the grid operator for the Netherlands and parts of Germany), the uptime for their high voltage grid is about 99.99963%. Obviously it will be lower for individual consumers, since there is a lower voltage grid in between them and the high voltage grid that might fail separately. Still, I think I've personally experienced only one power failure in the last 5 years or so.
