Abstract: A purpose of the present invention is to provide a technique for still further improving safety by increasing the resistance change ratio in a high-temperature range in a nonaqueous electrolyte energy storage device, the internal resistance of which increases with an increase in internal temperature. In a positive electrode plate for nonaqueous electrolyte energy storage device, an intermediate layer containing an electrically conducting agent and a binder is provided between a positive electrode current collector and a positive composite layer, and as the binder in the intermediate layer, one having a mass average molecular weight larger than that of a binder in the positive composite layer is used. Consequently, the resistance change ratio in a high-temperature range can be increased.

Abstract: A technology described herein is for accurately determining the SOC of a secondary battery. An open-circuit-voltage-to-state-of-charge (OCV-SOC) characteristic has a capacity decrease estimation OCV region in which a relationship between the OCV and the SOC is assumed not to change due to degradation of the secondary battery 1a since a reference time point. Charge currents or discharge currents in the capacity decrease estimation OCV region are accumulated in a process in which the secondary battery SOC changes among OCVs. From the accumulation, an accumulated current is obtained. A secondary battery capacity decrease is estimated based on the accumulated current. An OCV-SOC characteristic is specified based on the estimated secondary battery capacity decrease and a predetermined relationship between the battery capacity decrease of the secondary battery since the reference time point and the OCV-SOC characteristic.
