A solar cell module includes a substrate, a photo-electricity generating device (i.e., a solar cell or a block of solar cells), a filler resin sealing the photo-electricity generating device on the substrate, and a surface film covering the filler resin. An insulating film is inserted between the photo-electricity generating device and the substrate so as to be inside the substrate, and an inorganic fibrous sheet is inserted between the photo-electricity generating device and the surface film so as to be disposed inside the insulating film. The substrate is bent at a portion thereof free from the insulating film. The solar cell member thus provided can exhibit a long-term reliability for outdoor use because of effective suppression of intrusion of moisture thereinto. |
