Original Abstract Submitted

A fuel cell power-supply management device and a fuel cell power-supply management method enabling efficient recovery and utilization of boil-off gas. The fuel cell power-supply management device includes: a boil-off gas accumulation amount recognition unit that recognizes an accumulation amount of the boil-off gas in a boil-off gas accumulation unit; a demand status recognition unit that recognizes a demand status for each use of the boil-off gas; a boil-off gas recovery timing determination unit that determines a recovery timing of the boil-off gas accumulated in the boil-off gas accumulation unit, based on an accumulation amount of the boil-off gas recognized by the boil-off gas accumulation amount recognition unit or a demand status of the boil-off gas recognized by the demand status recognition unit; and a boil-off gas utilization processing arrangement unit that arranges utilization processing of the boil-off gas recovered from the boil-off gas accumulation unit at the recovery timing.
