The HV battery system 112 includes a HV battery with a plurality of cells and a bus, measurement apparatus for determining the state of charge (SOC), and may include other associated equipment, such as a thermal control system, current measuring circuitry, control circuitry, switching circuitry, and the like. The HV battery may, for example, be an 800 V traction battery with a 20 kW capacity.

The HV battery of the HV battery system 112 may be charged through a charge port 130. The charge port 130 may, for example, be a standard SAE charge port and may support various DC fast charging standards. A battery charge control module (BCCM)/direct-current to direct-current (DCDC) converter 120 may control charging of the HV battery system 112 from a charging source (not shown) in a first direction, and may operate in the opposite direction to charge another electric vehicle (EV) 190 from the HV battery system 112. For example, the EV 190 may be a BEV skid loader at a jobsite.
