Gradients in chemical potential drive the ions toward the electrodes, resulting in electrical currents during the discharge process. When the battery is in storage i.e., not discharging, electrons accumulate near the negative electrode and are depleted near the positive electrode, I.e. both charge up. electrochemical steps develop at the interfaces, stopping diffusion of ions.
