Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell system that can reduce to the utmost electric power consumed by accessories of the fuel cell system. SOLUTION: The fuel cell system 100 equipped with a fuel cell 110 generating electric power with fuel and oxygen in air, and an air supply means 180 supplying air to the fuel cell 110 is equipped with air distribution channels 160, 172 and 174 taking in air from the outside of the fuel cell system 100 and exhausting air inside the fuel cell system 100 to the outside, an air take-in port 184 of the air supply means 180 is installed in the air distribution channel. Air taken-in from the air take-in port 184 is not needed to be warmed by a heat exchanger or the like before being supplied to the fuel cell 110, thus reducing electric power consumed with the air supply means 180.
