METHOD FOR STARTING A FUEL CELL SYSTEM

A method for starting a fuel cell system is proposed, wherein the fuel cell system comprises at least one fuel cell stack and a compressor arrangement that has a first compressor, which is coupled to an electric motor, and a second compressor, which is coupled to a turbine arranged in a cathode path of the fuel cell system. The method can provide a first start mode and a second start mode, in which modes only the first compressor or both compressors is/are started, in particular depending on starting conditions and operating conditions of the fuel cell stack.
