Provided is a solid electrolyte fuel cell having multiple cells (84) disposed within a fuel cell module (2), a reformer (20), a reformer temperature sensor (148) that detects a reformation state temperature, and a control unit (110) that controls the operation of the fuel cell module. When a solid electrolyte fuel cell module that has been shut down is restarted at a temperature within at least the high temperature region of the POX temperature range, the control unit prohibits a start-up that uses POX, which is used during normal startup, and carries out restart control in order to restart the module in a manner differing from POX. |
