Abstract
A photovoltaic module includes a front protective layer, a back protective layer, a plurality of solar cells, and a filler. The front protective layer is transmissive to light and has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The back protective layer faces the second surface. The plurality of solar cells are between the second surface and the back protective layer. The filler is between the front protective layer and the plurality of solar cells and covers the plurality of solar cells. The filler includes a material with a chemical structure to generate a free acid. The front protective layer includes a weather-resistance resin. At least a part of the first surface is exposed to a space external to the photovoltaic module.
