ABSTRACT:
A power supply system 10 with a stack of fuel cells 20 and a storage battery 30 includes a remaining charge monitor 42 for measuring the remaining charge of the storage battery 30. At the time of starting the power supply system 10, the remaining charge monitor 42 detects the remaining charge of the storage battery 30. The power supply system 10 estimates output electric current of the fuel cells 20 based on the observed remaining charge of the storage battery 30 and an amount of electric power required for auxiliary machinery 34, and supplies required amounts of gases to the fuel cells 20 based on the estimated output electric current.
