The invention provides a rotating electric machine capable of effectively cooling a stator winding, a permanent magnet mounted on a rotor and the like. One axial end of the rotating shaft (11) is inserted into a refrigerant storage portion (8), an axial flow path (20) is formed from one axial end of the rotating shaft (11) to the other axial end side along a shaft centerline, a refrigerant accumulator (22) concaves a surface of the first end plate (15) in contact with the rotor core (12) and is formed in an annular shape, the radial flow path (21) is orthogonally connected to the axial flow path (20) at the axial mounting position of the first end plate (15), is opened on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft (11), and is directly connected to the refrigerant accumulation portion (22); and a throttle bolt (23) is mounted on the outlet side of the radial flow path (21).
