I imagine the "unexplained" difference is that the Netherlands price is for
an OA article in a hybrid journal that creates global access for that
article vs the German PAR that is global access for the article + for a
portion of the read access DEAL has secured for over 700 German
institutions to the non-OA articles in Wiley journals. Whereas, in the
Netherlands, institutions must still subscribe to the non-OA content. I.e.,
the Netherlands has an offset not a PAR agreement. Lisa

An interesting (and unexplained) price difference to the Netherlands, where
we pay € 1600 per Wiley article.
See: https://www.qoam.eu/Content/documents/Price-per-article.pdf

Today brings an analysis of the financials of this deal from Marcel
Knöchelmann - working out to an estimate of the total cost of this deal to
Germany being about 30m Euro – see:
“The PAR fee of €2,750 is quite high. With the estimated annual publishing
volume being 10,000 articles, the initial price tag of the contract may be
€27,500,000. This is not explicitly stated in the fact sheet issued by DEAL
and is also subject to variation. However, the cost of €27,5m excludes the
cost for gold open access. If Wiley’s current rate of gold open access
publications is estimated to be 15% for articles in Germany, there will be
additional costs for gold open access APCs for about 1,500 articles. This
would amount to €2,823,000 (€1,882 x 1,500 if the APCs of Wiley’s fully
open access journal portfolio is averaged); with the 20% discount this
would be about €2,25m. All in all, the PAR agreement may amount to annual
costs of roughly €30m.”

Another very interesting observation that Marcel includes is that, while
Wiley got a PAR fee of €2,750 per article, DEAL had only offered Elsevier
€2,000 per article (which Elsevier rejected).
I wonder if Wiley has now managed to set the minimum PAR per article
payment for the industry – at a level that is actually higher than the
average Wiley Gold APC!
