METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING CONCENTRATOR PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE, AND CARRIER JIG

Provided is a method for manufacturing a concentrator photovoltaic module including: a plurality of power generating elements onto which sunlight is concentrated by a plurality of condenser lenses; and a housing that accommodates the plurality of power generating elements. The housing includes a resin frame body, and a metal bottom plate that closes a bottom-side opening of the frame body and has an inner surface on which the plurality of power generating elements are disposed. The method includes: a first step of bringing a peripheral edge of the inner surface of the bottom plate into contact with a bottom end surface of the frame body, and fixing the bottom plate to the frame body to obtain the housing; and a second step of fixing the housing to a transport jig configured to transport the housing in a horizontally laid state. The transport jig includes a support portion that is provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface of the frame body, and supports the housing from below. In the second step, the housing is fixed to the transport jig, with the support portion being in contact with a peripheral edge of an outer surface of the bottom plate.
