Abstract
A fuel cell system includes a control device for setting an oxygen-containing gas operating pressure target value on the cathode side using a relative pressure relative to atmospheric pressure, setting a fuel gas operating pressure target value on the anode side using an absolute pressure, and controlling a power generation current of the fuel cell using as command values the relative pressure and the absolute pressure. The control device controls operation of the entire fuel cell system.
