In addition to the above named, submarine interconnectors Denmark has 400 kV, 220 kV and 150 kV AC transmission cables from Jutland to Germany. These cables can import 1,500 MW and export 1,780 MW of power. Denmark also has four AC (two 132 kV and two 400 kV) submarine cables connecting Zealand with Sweden. These can import 1,300 MW and export 1,700 MW of power.[2][3][4]
