An example electrical power system of a vehicle includes a DC bus (20) operable to power a DC load (16) of the vehicle and a power grid external to the vehicle, a DC power generating system (12), a multifunctional traction drive system, and a controller. The DC power generating system includes a battery (22), and a first power converter (30) operable in an active rectification mode, an inverter mode, and at least one DC-DC converter mode. The multifunctional traction drive system (14) includes a second power converter operable to cooperate with the DC power generating system for operation in an inverter mode and at least one DC-DC converter mode. The controller (60) is operable to select an output configuration of the battery and an operating mode of each of the first and second power converters according to a plurality of predefined system configurations.
