Abstract

An electricity storing solar power generation deviceincludes: solar cells including at least two kinds of solar cellsandhaving mutually different spectral absorption sensitivities; and electricity storing devicesandelectrically connected to the solar cells. The solar cells are configured such that an n(n being an integer of 1 or greater) solar cell spontaneously disperses light by itself by transmitting or reflecting light so as to allow a portion of light incident on the nsolar cell other than a portion of light absorbed by the nsolar cell to fall on an n+1solar cell having a smaller band gap. Each of the solar cells is electrically connected to one of the electricity storing devices, and electric power generated by the solar cells is stored in the electricity storing devices electrically connected to the two or more solar cells.
