Abstract

A solar power generation system includes a string, an inverter, and a plurality of shut-off devices. The string includes a plurality of solar cell module groups. The plurality of shut-off devices are configured to cut off a connection between the plurality of solar cell module groups. The plurality of solar cell module groups include a first group, a second group connected to the first group, and a third group connected to the second group. The plurality of shut-off devices includes a first open-close unit connected to the second group, a semiconductor switching device connected in series to the first open-close unit, and a power supply unit connected to the second group and configured to generate power to drive the first open-close unit. The semiconductor switching device enters an OFF state when an amount of power generated by second group is smaller than a predetermined threshold.
