A fuel cell including a plurality of unit cells that each includes an anode, an electrolyte membrane, and a cathode. The unit cells are stacked together, such that the unit cells form rows and furrows. The fuel cell can further include an anode frame to support an anode side of the fuel cell stack, and a cathode frame to support a cathode side of the fuel cell stack. The fuel cell can include reinforcing members to support either of the frames.
