Abstract
A method of manufacturing a solar cell module comprising adhering a first silicone gel sheet to one surface of a transparent light receiving panel to be a sunlight incidence surface; adhering a second silicone gel sheet to one surface of a light non-receiving panel or back sheet on the side opposite to the sunlight incidence surface; disposing a solar cell string on the first silicone gel sheet of the light receiving panel, and disposing butyl rubber in a picture frame-like shape along an outer peripheral region of a panel where either of the silicone gel sheets are not formed; and laying the light receiving panel and the light non-receiving panel or back sheet over each other with the silicone gel sheets on the inside, and pressing them at 100 to 150° C. in vacuum to encapsulate the solar cell string with the silicone gel sheets and press bond the light receiving panel and the light non-receiving panel or back sheet to each other through the butyl rubber.
