Abstract

An energy conversion cell includes an electrochemical conversion unit. The energy conversion cell has an electrically positive side with a process gas supply and an electrically negative side. The electrochemical conversion unit, which has a self-supporting substrate and a number of functional layers, is disposed between the two sides. The electrochemical conversion unit has a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The negative electrode includes a porous metallic, self-supporting substrate.
