A power transfer system includes power conversion circuitry that has first circuitry and second circuitry on either side of a transformer that include a transformer having a power supply, a switch, a capacitor connected in parallel with a winding of the transformer, and an inductor connected between the power supply and the capacitor. The inductor provides an additional resonance current path through the power conversion circuitry that is configured to reduce a peak voltage at the switch. A direction of power transfer through the power conversion circuit is determined, and the first circuitry and the second circuitry are configured based on the determined direction of power transfer. The switches of the first circuitry and second circuitry are controlled using switching based on the determined direction of power transfer and a quantity of power transfer.
