Abstract
System and method are provided for transferring electrical energy among multiple electrical energy storage devices via multiple differential power buses and capacitive load switched-mode power supplies. The switched-mode power supplies transfer the electrical energy between the load capacitors and the differential power buses to which the electrical energy storage devices (e.g., rechargeable batteries and/or capacitors connected in parallel or series or combinations of both) are electrically connected via bus switches. As a result, electrical energy is efficiently transferred and distributed among the electrical energy storage devices.
