A degradation judgment method, for a storage battery, according to the invention detects generation of a gas (hydrogen, oxygen, etc) after the start of charging of a lead-acid storage battery 10 and measures the electrical characteristics (voltage, current, resistance, etc) of the lead-acid storage battery upon generation of the gas and a gas concentration, a gas generation quantity and a gas generation speed. These measurement values are compared with the results of determination of the relation calculated in advance between the degradation condition and these various quantities and the degradation condition of the lead-acid storage battery is judged.
