Now let's look at the layout of a fuel cell. A fuel cell, like any other electrochemical cell, has an anode and a cathode. It has a conductor that carries electrons from the anode to the cathode. And this is our outside system that receives electricity in the form of moving electrons. Now, like always, like most cases, our anode is negatively charged and out cathode is positively charged. And that's why electrons travel from the negative charge to the positive charge.
