To provide a method for manufacturing an electrode for a battery not decreasing the energy density of the battery even if the thickness of an electrode layer is increased, and not affecting output performance.

The electrode for the battery is manufactured by applying slurry for an active material layer prepared in a step S3 to a current collector and drying the slurry. The slurry contains: a first electrode material having porous structure mainly including a first active material; a second electrode material having dense structure mainly including a second active material; a conductive assistant; and a binder.
