The present invention provide a pouch type secondary battery and a method for manufacturing the same. More particularly, the present invention provides a pouch type secondary battery and a method for manufacturing the same, in which a pouch case is formed in a folding manner without being subjected to a forming process (press process), such that there is no limit in a length, and a thickness of an inner space of the pouch case is not limited.

Provided in a power storage module including: a plurality of power storage devices; and a first current collector that holds the plurality of power storage devices. The plurality of power storage devices each include a case having an opening, an electrode assembly including a first electrode and a second electrode housed in the case, and a sealing member that seals the opening. The case includes a tubular part including one end provided with the opening, and a bottom that closes the other end of the tubular part. The case is electrically connected to the first electrode. The first current collector has a plurality of first through-holes that set and position the corresponding one of the plurality of electric storage devices, and the plurality of first through-holes each have a periphery electrically connected to the case. This structure enables improving energy density of the power storage module.
