An oxygen supply device for an aircraft has a reaction tank for chemical oxygen generation and a pressurized tank filled with oxygen. The oxygen supply device also has an energy converter for converting thermal energy into electrical energy and also a control unit for setting a first amount of oxygen, provided by the reaction tank to a consumer unit, and a second amount of oxygen, provided by the pressurized tank to the consumer unit. The energy converter is designed to convert a thermal energy, generated by the chemical oxygen generation in the reaction tank, into electrical energy and to provide the electrical energy. The control unit is designed to set the second amount of oxygen, provided by the pressurized tank to the consumer unit, by using the electrical energy provided by the energy converter. The invention also relates to a method for supplying a passenger cabin of an aircraft with oxygen.
