A fuel cell system and control method that accurately estimates the idle return time and/or auxiliary device power consumption that changes in accordance with environmental conditions. A fuel cell system comprising fuel cell (19) that generates power by supplying fuel gas containing hydrogen and oxidant gas containing oxygen, idle stopping means (62) that stops power generation of fuel cell (19), which is in idle operation, and puts it in an idle stopped state, atmospheric pressure detection means (61) that detects the atmospheric pressure of the periphery of the fuel cell, and idle return time estimation means (63) that estimates the idle return time from the time at which the fuel cell that is in the idle stopped state starts the start-up operation until it returns to idle operation based on the atmospheric pressure detected by the atmospheric pressure detection means. |
