Abstract
In a secondary battery which is poor in battery properties at a low temperature, by making the temperature of the secondary battery in a state of the largest discharge capacity, a secondary battery which can be used under a condition such as a cold district is obtained. A cell of the battery is configured in a sheet form, and the cell is provided with a heat generation unit capable of generating heat by carrying a current. According to this configuration, the battery can be used at a temperature with good capacity properties regardless of the ambient temperature environment. In particular, in an organic electrolytic liquid-free polymer electrolyte or solid electrolyte-containing lithium ion secondary battery which is high in energy density but poor in battery properties at a low temperature, a sufficient battery performance can be brought out regardless of the temperature environment.
