PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a solar heat utilizing unit, wherein solar energy is utilized for heat collection and power generation with a single unit, while units are easily connected together to constitute a solar heat utilizing device. SOLUTION: This solar heat utilizing unit comprises a short pipe-like unit provided with a transparent jacket B with a hollow part 1 and a solar cell module C allocated in succession in the hollow part 1. While power generation is performed with the solar cell module C, a thermal medium α such as air and water is circulated usign the hollow part 1 to collect solar heat. Furthermore, with a male-to-female connect type connector allocated on both end surfaces of the unit, an assembly (solar heat utilizing device) of units in response to size required for the situation is obtained just by connecting connectors together, for easy transportation, setting, constitution, and maintenance. |
