In a fuel cell assembly comprising at least one cell including an electrolyte layer, a pair of gas diffusion electrode layers interposing the electrolyte layer between them, and a pair of flow distribution plates for defining passages for fuel and oxidizer gases that contact the gas diffusion electrode layers, the electrolyte layer comprises a grid frame provided with a multitude of through holes, and electrolyte retained in each through hole, heater wire being disposed in a grid bar of the frame so that the entire catalyst and electrolyte may be heated up to a desired temperature suitable for the reaction, instead of being heated only locally, in a short period of time, and the desired output can be obtained in a short period of time following the start-up. <IMAGE> |
