12. An electrochemical cell comprising:
a cathode;
an anode;
an electrolyte separator, comprised of a ceramic material, located between the cathode and the anode; and
an anode current collector, wherein the anode is located between the anode current collector and the electrolyte separator,
wherein the anode comprises a three dimensional (3D) porous anode including:
ionically conducting electrolyte strands extending through the anode from the anode current collector to the electrolyte separator;
pores extending through the anode from the anode current collector to the electrolyte separator; and
an electronically conducting network extending on sidewall surfaces of the pores from the anode current collector to the electrolyte separator, and
wherein the cathode is comprised of a catholyte which includes liquid catholyte material located in a cathode receptive space.
