BHND4LS HV Storage / Hybrid tariff guide
Who it’s for
New high-voltage storage or hybrid connections with no co-located load.
What you pay
This tariff is for a separate battery or hybrid connection. It is not for a normal business load.
If you get solar
Do not use this tariff to assess solar that shares a meter with normal business equipment.
If you get a battery
Treat this as a specialist connection project. The connection design and market contract control the result.
Check before you decide
- Confirm this code on a current retailer bill.
- Check the connection approval, export limit and protection design.
- Get an engineering review before you select equipment.

Illustrative example
Classify a 500 kW HV storage project
- The new battery connects to the high-voltage distribution network.
- Its rated power is 500 kW.
- Only ancillary load shares the meter.
The example uses a project above 250 kW, but voltage is the key distinction from BLND4LS. Confirm the connection offer.
