NOVELTY - An energy storage device has an anode (11) and a cathode (15). The anode has anode Faraday layer (13) having Faraday reaction mechanism, and anode non-Faraday layer (14) having non-Faraday reaction mechanism. The cathode has a region having Faraday reaction mechanism, provided on a collector (16). The anode Faraday layer and non-Faraday layer each have a portion exposed to side facing cathode. The energy storage device has active material in which insertion detachment of lithium ion is possible to the region having Faraday reaction mechanism.    USE - For modules used in electric vehicles (both claimed), hybrid electric vehicles, and golf carts, as power supply for portable information-communication apparatuses, such as personal computers, word processors, electronic book players, mobile telephones, pocket pagers, hand-held terminals, and transceivers, as power supply for portable apparatuses, such as portable copiers, calculators, liquid crystal televisions, tape recorders, electric shaver, and memory cards, and for electrical household machineries, such as refrigerators, air conditioners, dish washers, driers, water heaters, and toys.    ADVANTAGE - The energy storage device has excellent output characteristics, charging-and-discharging characteristics, and durability.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An energy storage device has an anode (11) and a cathode (15). The anode has regions having anode Faraday layer (13) having Faraday reaction mechanism, and anode non-Faraday layer (14) having non-Faraday reaction mechanism, provided on a collector (12). The cathode has a region having Faraday reaction mechanism, provided on a collector (16). The anode Faraday layer and non-Faraday layer each have a portion exposed to a side facing the cathode. The energy storage device has an active material in which insertion detachment of lithium ion is possible to the region having Faraday reaction mechanism.    INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for the following:    (a) energy storage device module comprising energy storage devices connected in series, parallel or series-parallel, and a control circuit for controlling the energy storage devices; and    (b) electric vehicle mounted with the module. The motor and/or internal combustion engine are driven with the electric power supplied by the module.
