Abstract
A hydrogen supply system includes a detachable hydrogen tank, a hydrogen consumption apparatus that consumes hydrogen in the hydrogen tank, and a control device. The hydrogen consumption apparatus includes a detachment and attachment mechanism that detaches the hydrogen tank from the hydrogen consumption apparatus and attaches the hydrogen tank to the hydrogen consumption apparatus. The detachment and attachment mechanism includes a motor that controls detachment and attachment of the hydrogen tank from and to the hydrogen consumption apparatus. When a torque value of the motor exceeds a threshold during the control of the detachment and attachment of the hydrogen tank from and to the hydrogen consumption apparatus, the control device returns the hydrogen tank to a position where a moving process in which the threshold being exceeded is detected is started.
