Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006097242A1] The invention relates to a fuel cell system heatable by means of an alternating current producing device. The fuel cell system consists of a fuel cell stack (1), which comprises at least one fuel cell and is provided with at least one electric connection (1a and 1b). Said invention is characterised in that the fuel cell stack (1) is connected to the alternating current producing device (2) by means of the electric connection (1a and 1b), for electrically heating the fuel cell stack (1) by supplying the alternating current though the electric connections (1a and 1b).
