Original Abstract Submitted

A power storage device includes: a power storage module; an accommodating case that accommodates the power storage module; a cooler that cools the power storage module via the accommodating case; a gap filler being disposed in part of a gap between the power storage module and the accommodating case; and an adhesive part that bonds the gap filler to the accommodating case. The accommodating case includes a cooling area cooled by the cooler. The power storage module and the gap filler are arranged in the cooling area. The gap filler includes an opposite surface that faces the cooling area. The adhesive part is arranged at a periphery of the opposite surface so as to seal a gap between the opposite surface and the cooling area.
