Abstract: The invention provides a gas supply apparatus capable of suppressing (or reducing, etc.) damage due to reductions in temperature accompanying gas supply. A fuel cell system 10 comprises a hydrogen supply apparatus 15, having four hydrogen tanks 51, 52, 53, and 54, and a control unit 80 for controlling the supply of hydrogen gas from said tanks, where said control unit 80 not only detects the temperatures of the hydrogen tanks 51 through 54, but also limits the supply of hydrogen gas from a tank that serves as a supply source, based on the relationship between the temperature of the tank that has become the supply source and a guaranteed temperature range for guaranteeing the performance of said tank.
