An improved power-split control system for managing a load profile of a fuel cell in a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) is provided. The power-split control system is operable to actively manage the power demand between the fuel cell and the battery of a FCEV to optimize the operational life of the fuel cell. The power-split control system can use information gathered solely from historical drive cycle data or from historical drive cycle data combined with look-ahead eHorizon data. The power-split control system meets a power demand by operating the powertrain in either a battery charge sustaining mode or a battery charge depletion mode. The power-split control system is also configured to control the power distribution (to the electric motor) from the fuel cell and the battery in a manner that minimizes the degradation of the fuel cell.
