Abstract

The invention concerns a method of operating a high-temperature fuel cell system (2) comprising a high-temperature fuel cell module (4) with an anode part (20) and a cathode part (22). The fuel gas necessary for the electrochemical reaction is generated by a gas reforming process, more hydrogen (H2) being generated than is consumed during the electrochemical reaction in the high-temperature fuel cell module (4). The hydrogen (H2) not consumed in the high-temperature fuel cell module (4) is made available for further use outside the high-temperature fuel cell module (4). Owing to this measure, the efficiency of the high-temperature fuel cell system (2) is optimized.
