Abstract:
An abnormality detection method detects abnormality of an assembled battery including energy storage devices by an abnormality detection device. Each energy storage device contains, as a positive active material, lithium iron phosphate and lithium transition metal oxide that allows insertion and extraction reaction of a lithium ion in a potential range higher than that of the lithium iron phosphate. A ratio of an amount of charge based on a total amount of the lithium transition metal oxide to an amount of charge based on a total amount of the positive active material in a charge-discharge range, in which the energy storage device is used, is 5% or more. The abnormality detection device acquires voltage of each of the energy storage devices near a charge end point in the charge-discharge range where the energy storage device is used and detects abnormality in the assembled battery using the acquired voltage of the energy storage devices.
