Abstract
An energy storage apparatus includes an energy storage device including a surface having a first end face from which an external terminal protrudes and a second end face on an opposite side from the first end face and a retaining member that includes paired end members disposed on opposite sides of the energy storage device in a second direction orthogonal to a first direction in which the external terminal protrudes and a coupling portion for coupling the paired end members. The coupling portion includes a main body portion facing the energy storage device in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction, a first extending portion extending along the first end face from the main body portion, and an end extending portion extending along the end member from the main body portion, a drain portion is provided to a position of the energy storage apparatus near the second end face, and the main body portion, the first extending portion, and the end extending portion are connected to each other to thereby form a first end corner portion of the coupling portion.
