Abstract

A fuel cell system includes: a fuel cell including a fuel gas passage through which a fuel gas flows and an oxidant gas passage through which an oxidant gas flows, an inlet of the fuel gas passage being located closer to an outlet of the oxidant gas passage than to an inlet of the oxidant gas passage, an outlet of the fuel gas passage being located closer to the inlet of the oxidant gas passage than to the outlet of the oxidant gas passage; an oxidant gas supply unit supplying the oxidant gas to the fuel cell; and a supply amount controller configured to control the oxidant gas supply unit, the supply amount controller is configured to control the oxidant gas supply unit so that a stoichiometric ratio of the oxidant gas in a high-temperature high output power state is greater than that in a high-temperature low output power state.
