Methods and systems are provided to control a fuel cell power plant system to provide load following capabilities and to improve power plant availability. In one embodiment, a method is performed for controlling a fuel cell power plant system. The process includes controlling a variable load bank capable of absorbing output power from the fuel cell power plant such that the total load on the fuel cell power plant is constant, wherein the total load is a combination of an external load connected to the power plant and a load on the variable load bank. Further, the process may include maintaining a constant chemical reaction rate of the fuel cell power plant while maintaining a desired total load.
