Abstract
A solar cell module includes a photovoltaic element, a light receiving surface side protective member disposed above a light receiving surface of the photovoltaic element, and a back surface side protective member disposed above a back surface opposite to the light receiving surface side of the photovoltaic element. The photovoltaic element includes an indium oxide layer formed on a surface facing the back surface side protective member and another indium oxide layer formed on a surface facing the light receiving surface side protective member. An arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) on a surface of the indium oxide layer on the back surface of the photovoltaic element is larger than an arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) on the light receiving surface of the photovoltaic element.
