Abstract
To provide a measuring method capable of measuring even a large-area stacked photoelectric conversion device such as a module or array either indoors or outdoors and accurately measuring the photoelectric conversion characteristics using an inexpensive measuring system, the photoelectric conversion characteristics of a photoelectric conversion device under irradiation light in a plurality of spectral states and a shift of the short-circuit current of each component cell of the photoelectric conversion device from the standard test condition are estimated, and the measured photoelectric conversion characteristics and the estimated shift are compared, thereby obtaining the photoelectric conversion characteristics of the photoelectric conversion device in the standard test conditions.
