Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an electrode assembly for water electrolysis, in which an electrolyte membrane is kept from being deteriorated. The present invention provides an electrode structure for water electrolysis, including an anode electrode and a cathode electrode disposed to face each other, characterized in that at least one of the anode electrode and the cathode electrode includes a porous component and a reticular component in order from the facing surface side, and the standard deviation of a pressure distribution at the surface of contact between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode, determined by the following measurement method, is 2.7 MPa or less.

After a test piece that has a pressure measurement film sandwiched between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode is pressurized at 4 MPa for 2 minutes, the pressure distribution obtained by a pressure analysis from a color image of the pressure measurement film, obtained from a pressure image analysis system, is defined as a pressure distribution at the surface of contact between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode, and the standard deviation of the pressure distribution is determined.
