1. An electrochemical cell module, comprising:
a first plate-shaped electrochemical cell including a first electricity generator, a first casing, and a first main surface;
a second plate-shaped electrochemical cell including a second electricity generator, a second casing, and a second main surface;
a bond; and
a housing accommodating the first plate-shaped electrochemical cell and the second plate-shaped electrochemical cell, the first plate-shaped electrochemical cell being stacked on the second plate-shaped electrochemical cell in a first direction, wherein
the first casing includes a first peripheral portion bent and in contact with an inner side surface of the housing, the first peripheral portion not overlapping the first electricity generator in the first direction,
the second casing includes a second peripheral portion bent and in contact with the inner side surface of the housing, the second peripheral portion not overlapping the second electricity generator in the first direction,
the first peripheral portion and the second peripheral portion overlap each other in the first direction,
the bond bonds the housing and the first peripheral portion to each other, the housing and the second peripheral portion to each other, and the first peripheral portion and the second peripheral portion to each other,
each of the first peripheral portion and the second peripheral portion includes
a first portion extending in the first direction along the inner side surface of the housing, contacting the inner side surface of the housing, and being bonded to the inner side surface of the housing with the bond, and
a second portion extending in a second direction away from the inner side surface and connecting the first portion to a portion of the corresponding first or second casing that overlaps the electricity generator in the second direction, the second direction crossing the first direction, and
the first portion of the second peripheral portion overlaps the second portion of the first peripheral portion in the second direction.
