The device for generating electrical energy comprises electrodes which make contact with a conductive medium, and also at least one electrode which is insulated from this conductive medium, and when a voltage is applied to said electrode, a stepped voltage is generated in the medium near the electrodes in contact therewith. With such an embodiment, the current flows through the contacting electrodes without any energy losses, i.e. without any current passing through the insulated electrode. The electrodes and the medium can have a wide variety of shapes and properties.
