  • Publication number: 20220344748
    Abstract: The present application discloses a car power supply system and a solid oxide fuel cell vehicle. The car power supply system specifically comprises a first battery, a vehicle control unit (VCU), a lithium battery management system, a solid oxide fuel cell control unit, a second battery, a first relay and a second relay. If a solid oxide fuel cell controlled by the solid oxide fuel cell control unit provided by the present application cannot stop working within a short time, the first relay restores the first battery to power the VCU and the lithium battery management system after a start switch stops power supply by the first battery, so that the solid oxide fuel cell control unit is powered by the second battery to make the cell work normally and realize power off, thereby preventing the problem that the solid oxide fuel cell cannot work due to rapid power failure of the vehicle.
