PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hydrogen supplying system for shortening waiting time required for an occlusion process and facilitating management of temperature and pressure in a tank. SOLUTION: A plurality of MH tanks 11-14 filled with a hydrogen storage alloy are provided, and heat exchanging medium passages 61-64 are respectively provided in each MH tank 11-14. Each entrance of each heat exchanging medium passage 61-64 is communicated with a hot water tank 15 and a cold water tank 16 via outward route three way valves 31-34, a hot water outward route 51 and a cold water outward route 53. A tank of a small capacity of about 1.5 times of a common on-vehicle tank is used as each MH tank 11-14, and if hydrogen of about 80% of a maximum storage capacity of each tank is occluded, it can be supplied to the on-vehicle tank. In each MH tank 11-14, the occlusion process is carried out after the hydrogen is supplied to the on- vehicle tank of one vehicle. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
