Patent attributes
A woven fabric with a photovoltaic power generation portion performs photovoltaic power generation by light, such as, e.g., solar light, and has flexibility. The woven fabric is composed of warp yarns and weft yarns. The woven fabric includes at least one functional yarn with a photovoltaic power generation portion as a weft yarn. The functional yarn with a photovoltaic power generation portion includes a photovoltaic power generation portion, a positive electrode conductive wire material connected to a positive electrode of the photovoltaic power generation portion, and a negative electrode conductive wire material connected to a negative electrode of the photovoltaic power generation portion. At least two warp yarns are conductive yarns. One of the conductive yarn is in electric contact with the positive electrode conductive wire material. The other warp yarn is in electric contact with the negative electrode conductive wire material.
