A fuel cell system includes: a converter disposed between a fuel cell and a load to increase an output voltage of the fuel cell; and a control unit that controls the converter at a predetermined duty ratio, wherein the control unit determines a duty command value for the converter from a feed-forward duty and a feed-back duty which are calculated using a command value of a reactor current that flows through a reactor in the converter and/or using a measurement value of the reactor current. In a low-load operation, the control unit sets, as a measurement value of the reactor current, a value obtained by multiplying a midpoint measurement value measured at an intermediate time of an on-duty period by a predetermined coefficient.
