An electrical power system for a space vehicle may comprise a first plurality of power sources (102), a first collector bus configured to receive power from the plurality of power sources (102), an unregulated DC bus (120) configured to receive power from the first collector bus, a regulated high voltage direct current (HVDC) bus (140) configured to receive power from the unregulated DC bus (120), and a first power distribution unit (PDU) (150) configured to receive power from the regulated HVDC bus (140). The regulated HVDC bus (140) may be configured to supply power to a high voltage load. The first plurality of power sources (102) may comprise a first solar array, a first supercapacitor, and/or a first battery.
