A system for supplying electrical energy to a partial or a total electrified drivetrain of a vehicle, the system may include an energy storage system having an energy storage system output that is excess of an operating voltage of the electrified drivetrain. A first converter having an input coupled to the energy storage system output and a first converter output that is at an operating voltage of the electrified drivetrain. Optionally, a supplemental storage bank may be coupled to the first converter output. A second converter is coupled to the supplemental storage bank to provide an output at an operating voltage of the electrified drivetrain and at a peak operating current of the electrified drivetrain.
