Abstract

A solar cell module is made lightweight without a substantial loss of the performance of the module by using a transparent hollow multilayer structure in which a plurality of transparent sheets are spaced at a distance by reinforcing members inserted between and connected to the transparent sheets as a window member as well as a supporting member of the module by disposing said transparent hollow multilayer structure on the light receiving side of a solar power generation element.
