Abstract

The fuel cell includes a power generation unit, a plurality of storage containers that are detachable and house hydrogen absorbing alloy, a heat medium passage through which a heat medium flows, and a temperature control unit for heating the storage containers by controlling the temperature of the heat medium and causing the heat medium to flow. The temperature control unit can carry out a first temperature control mode of controlling the temperature of the heat medium to be equal to or higher than a first temperature, and a second temperature control mode of controlling the temperature of the heat medium to be equal to or higher than a second temperature. The temperature control unit determines whether the second temperature mode is to be carried out or not based on the pressure or the temperature of an attached storage container when a new storage container is attached.
