The Baltic Cable HVDC interconnector, including the Herrenwyk converter station near Germany’s Baltic coast and the Kruseberg converter station in southern Sweden supplied by Hitachi Energy, was commissioned in 1994. The 600 MW, 450 kV DC link, owned by Baltic Cable AB, began operation to interconnect the Swedish and German grids and enable more efficient use of existing generation capacity.
