ABSTRACT:
A fuel cell module includes a number of series-connected fuel cells forming a fuel cell stack. To reliably ensure that there is no risk of the fuel cell stack buckling, even where a comparatively large number of fuel cells are grouped to form a fuel cell stack, the fuel cell stack is surrounded by a stabilizing casing, at least in a middle area as seen in the longitudinal direction.
