An object of the present invention is to satisfactorily suppress loss of heat energy, promote heat self-sustaining, and improve power generation efficiency. A fuel cell module includes a fuel cell stack, a reformer that reforms a mixed gas of raw fuel and steam, an evaporator that supplies steam to the reformer, and combustion gas. A heat exchanger 50 that raises the temperature of the oxidant gas by heat exchange, an exhaust gas combustor 52 that generates the combustion gas, and a start-up combustor 54 are provided. The fuel cell module 12 includes a first thermoelectric converter 74 and a second thermoelectric converter 106 that perform thermoelectric conversion based on a temperature difference between the combustion gas and the oxidant gas.
