Description of the Related Art Since a solar cell receives sunlight to generate electric power, it is preferable that it can be installed on, for example, a roof having a curved surface or a columnar structure. Conventionally, there has been a demand for arranging a solar cell on a surface having a curved structure and extracting generated power from sunlight. like this,
A solar cell that can be installed in a place having a curved structure can be manufactured by, for example, depositing an amorphous solar cell on a sheet having a curved structure. However, the amorphous solar cell has a low conversion efficiency of sunlight into generated power, and has a problem in obtaining large generated power in a relatively small area.

However, since these solar cells are generally thick, it is difficult to bend them, and solar cell modules using a flat crystalline semiconductor substrate have been supplied to the market. However, if such a solar cell module having high conversion efficiency is not flat and can be applied to a curved structure, the area where it can be installed is significantly increased.
