PURPOSE:To provide a fuel cell system for promptly responding to abrupt change in the load without forcing expansion of the system, and for improving the generation efficiency. CONSTITUTION:A fuel cell 1 having a fuel electrode, an oxidant electrode and a polymeric film interposed between the respective electrodes, is provided, and a fuel gas feeding channel 3 and an oxidant gas feeding channel 13 for feeding oxidant gas, are connected to both of the electrodes. In a fuel cell system of this structure, a fuel gas bifurcation channel for which the channels 3 and 13 are connected together in series, and an oxidant gas bifurcation channel 15 are connected to the fuel gas feeding channel 3 and the oxidant gas feeding channel 13. Compressors 6, 16 for compressing excess fuel gas as well as oxidant gas, and storage tanks 7, 17 for storing the compressed gas, are provided on the channels 5 and 15, respectively. |
