This storage cell (11) is configured of a positive electrode (22), an electrolyte layer that is formed on the positive electrode (22) and a negative electrode (24) that is formed on the electrolyte layer. The electrolyte layer contains, for example, a substance which produces a compound by reacting with the positive electrode (22). The electrolyte layer contains, for example, a substance which is the same as a substance contained in the negative electrode (24), and which produces a compound by reacting with the positive electrode (22). With respect to this storage cell (11), for example, a compound is decomposed by the supply of a current from the positive electrode (22) toward the negative electrode (24) through the electrolyte layer, and a compound is produced by the supply of a current from the negative electrode (24) toward the positive electrode (22) through the electrolyte layer.
