Abstract
An electricity storage device includes an electrode assembly and a load applying mechanism. The load applying mechanism applies, to the electrode assembly, a load in a direction in which the positive electrode and the negative electrode are stacked in the electrode assembly. The negative electrode includes a metal foil and an active material layer that covers at least part of the metal foil and contains a carbon-based material as an active material. The density of the carbon-based material in the active material layer is 1.2 g/cmor higher. The degree of orientation that is defined as a ratio (I(100)/I(002)) of an X-ray diffraction intensity I(100) of a (100) plane to a diffraction intensity I(002) of a (002) plane in the active material layer is lower than or equal to 0.3. The load applied by the load applying mechanism is greater than or equal to 0.22 MPa.
