BYD is the global market leader in battery storage. Discover the B-Box and HVS product lines, technical specs, prices and pros and cons for the European market.
BYD (Build Your Dreams) may be better known as an electric vehicle manufacturer, but the Chinese conglomerate is simultaneously the world's largest producer of home batteries. With factories in multiple countries and an impressive track record, BYD delivers battery systems used by installation specialists across Europe.
BYD home batteries are typically not sold directly to consumers, but through certified installers and dealers. In Europe, they are available through specialised energy companies, paired with a hybrid inverter of your choice.
BYD offers two clearly distinct product lines for the residential market.
The B-Box series operates on low voltage (48V). These batteries are compatible with a wide range of inverters and are popular in smaller installations from 2.56 to 15.36 kWh. The modular design makes it easy to start with low capacity and expand later.

The HVS series (High Voltage Storage) operates on high voltage, which delivers higher efficiency and reduces energy loss during conversion. HVS batteries are available from 5.12 kWh to 38.4 kWh and are the preferred choice for large households and systems with high power requirements.
Both BYD product lines use proven LiFePO4 cell chemistry. Storage efficiency is 95-97%. BYD provides a 10-year factory warranty for both series, guaranteeing a minimum of 60% remaining capacity after 10 years.
| Series | Voltage | Min. capacity | Max. capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| B-Box Premium | 48V (low) | 2.56 kWh | 15.36 kWh |
| B-Box Pro | 48V (low) | 2.56 kWh | 7.68 kWh |
| HVS | 200-500V (high) | 5.12 kWh | 25.6 kWh |
| HVM | 200-500V (high) | 8.28 kWh | 38.4 kWh |
BYD has an extensive European dealer network and a proven track record. For installations, you work together with certified partners who handle the inverter connection.
BYD's main strength is its proven reliability: the brand has produced billions of cells and supplies large-scale energy storage projects worldwide. The low-voltage B-Box is broadly compatible, while the HVS series excels in efficiency.
BYD is a good choice if you want proven technology from a manufacturer with impressive economies of scale. The batteries are less well-known among consumers than Anker or Huawei, but are highly valued by installers for their reliability and broad inverter compatibility.
The B-Box is ideal for smaller households and systems that want to start flexibly and expand over time. The HVS series is preferred for large households, higher power output and systems where efficiency is a priority.
