In a fuel cell power generation system that includes a fuel cell that generates power by an electrochemical reaction with a supply of a fuel gas and an oxide gas, a control portion that controls the amount of power generated by the fuel cell, and a hot portion that is hot while the system is operating, the control portion and the hot portion are disposed separated from one another in the same package. Accordingly, even though the control portion and the hot portion are housed within the same main package, the control portion is not easily effected by the hot portion while the system is operating because it is separated from the hot portion. As a result, the control portion is able to perform its function well.
