Abstract:
1. A control a for a fuel cell vehicle comprising: a motor for driving the fuel cell vehicle; a motor control unit that controls driving and regenerative operations of the motor; a traction control unit that suppresses slippage of drive wheels by controlling driving force a between tires and a road surface; a fuel cell that generates electricity through electrochemical reaction by being supplied with reactant gases by a reactant gas supply unit and supplies electrical power to the motor; an electrical storage apparatus that is charged by power generated by the fuel cell and power regenerated by the motor; an output control unit that controls the output of the fuel cell; and a control unit that controls power consumption of the motor in advance of a change in a supply state of the reactant gases to the fuel cell due to execution of driving force control by the traction control unit.
