A solar cell module in which the reduction in conversion efficiency is small, and a passive solar heating system using the solar cell module. The solar cell module has a solar cell covered with a filler. A back reinforcement member, the filler and a back insulating member larger than the solar cell are superposed on the non-light-receiving side of the solar cell. The back insulating member has openings corresponding to pierced portions of the solar cell module at which the solar cell module is affixed to a roof. A greater amount of clean energy is obtained with the system. The solar cell is used without any additional base to limit the reduction in the conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[ What is claimed is:] [43.] A passive solar apparatus having a solar cell member and a thermal conversion member for converting sunlight into electricity and heat, wherein said solar cell member comprises:a. a bent steel panel;b. a photovoltaic array having a plurality of non-single-crystal semiconductor elements on the outer surface of said steel panel, said elements are arranged to receive the sunlight; andc. an insulating member between said steel panel and the non-light-receiving side of said non-single-crystal semiconductor elements, which occupies an area larger than the area occupied by the non-single crystal semiconductor elements, and whose end portion is positioned between said bend line and said non-single-crystal semiconductor elements.
