The present invention is provided with: a dehydrogenation reaction container which has a path that has a catalyst for promoting dehydrogenation reaction and in which organic hydride supplied to the path is separated into hydrogen and an aromatic compound; a first tank and a second tank which store the discharged hydrogen; a power supply device which generates power from the hydrogen supplied from the first tank and the second tank; and a control device which opens and closes the inlet into which hydrogen is supplied and the outlet from which hydrogen is discharged of the first tank and the second tank. The first tank is used to store the hydrogen used by the power supply device until the dehydrogenation reaction becomes active. Meanwhile, the second tank is used to store the hydrogen used by the power supply device after the dehydrogenation reaction becomes active or the hydrogen used by an external apparatus other than the devices constituting the dehydrogenation system. Until the dehydrogenation reaction becomes active, a heater for warming up the path is activated, and the power supply device is used to supply the organic hydride and activate the heater. |
