Abstract
A control method and system for starting a fuel cell vehicle is provided. The method includes setting a first output power that is an output power required for driving the vehicle and beginning to increase the fuel cell temperature after setting the first output power. In addition, available output power of a fuel cell is estimated and a discharge power of a high-voltage battery is received. A second output power that is a sum of the available output power of the fuel cell and the discharge power of the high-voltage battery is calculated. The method further includes determining whether the second output power is greater than the first output power and determining whether starting of the vehicle is allowable based on the determination of whether the second output power is greater than the first output power.
