Abstract

An electric power generation system comprises a fuel cell (9) and supplies (1, 5) of substances to be treated so as to provide suitable reactants for the fuel cell. The heating and cooling requirements of the system as a whole are balanced as far as possible and a control system (17) is provided to regulate the system to improve efficiency. The treatment of one of the substances may involve a reforming reaction to produce hydrogen reactant for the cell and reservoirs (14, 15) may be provided in the reactant feed lines. A battery (60) may be connected in parallel with the fuel cell via a switching means (17E) to enable it either to augment the power of the fuel cell or to be charged by the fuel cell, to supply power independently of the fuel cell, or to supply to start up the system.
