Abstract

An electric storage device has positive and negative electrode systems. The positive electrode system includes a positive electrode having a current collector and a positive-electrode mixture layer. The negative electrode system includes a negative electrode having a current collector and a negative-electrode mixture layer. The negative electrode system further includes a first negative-electrode mixture layer and a second negative-electrode mixture layer, which are connected to each other and which include at least one different material or have different material composition ratios. The first negative-electrode mixture layer and the second negative-electrode mixture layer have different charge/discharge characteristics. A through-hole is formed in the current collector arranged between the first negative-electrode mixture layer and the second negative-electrode mixture layer.
