Abstract
A power supply system includes a fuel cell, a power storage device, a first voltage adjusting device, a second voltage adjusting device, and a controller. The controller is to control the first voltage adjusting device and the second voltage adjusting device. The controller is to switch the second voltage adjusting device from a direct coupling state to a voltage adjusting state in a case where a first absolute value of a first difference between a secondary voltage of the second voltage adjusting device applied across a load and a fuel cell voltage is less than a predetermined allowable voltage value or in a case where a second absolute value of a second difference between a fuel cell current being to flow from the fuel cell into the first voltage adjusting device and a target current value of the fuel cell current exceeds a predetermined allowable current value.
