Disclosed herein is a system a including a controller, a switching assembly commanded by the controller, and a DC-DC charger associated via the switching assembly with an array of power storage devices (PSDs). The system is controllably connectable to a power source, and, to rechargeable loads. The switching assembly is configured to individually enable and circumvent PSDs in the array. The controller is communicatively associated with a computational module configured to receive charging requirements of a rechargeable load, and, based thereon, select whether to charge the load exclusively via PSDs in the array, exclusively via the power source, or jointly thereby, so as to substantially minimize power consumption, charging time, and/or electricity cost, and/or achieve a desired trade-off there between. The controller is configured to receive the selection from the computational module, and, if required, command the switching assembly to enable charging of the load by the selected PSDs.
