Abstract
A fuel cell system includes a reformer and a plurality of fuel cells of solid oxide. The reformer reforms raw fuel to generate fuel gas. The plurality of fuel cells generates electric power by using the fuel gas and oxidant gas. The plurality of fuel cells is arranged in the up-down direction and the right-left direction. The reformer has a cell facing face that faces any of the plurality of fuel cells in the back-and-forth direction. This configuration improves temperature uniformity among the plurality of fuel cells, and as a result, suppresses or prevents a decrease in the power generation efficiency of the fuel cell system.
