A nickel positive electrode for use in alkaline storage batteries which is improved in the rate of utilization of the nickel hydroxide in a wide temperature range with an oxygen evolving overvoltage being increased by incorporating at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds of yttrium, indium, antimony, and at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds of cobalt and calcium into the nickel positive electrode (2), and a nickel-hydrogen storage battery using the same. n The nickel positive electrode (2) contains at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds of yttrium, indium, antimony. The nickel positive electrode contains at least one of cobalt and calcium compounds. |
