Claim:
1. A solar cell apparatus comprising: a substrate including a transmission area, a first non-transmission area and a second non-transmission area extending in a first direction, and provided in parallel to each other, wherein the transmission area is between the first non-transmission area and the second non-transmission area; a first solar cell provided in the form of a stripe directly on a top surface of the first non-transmission area of the substrate, wherein the first solar cell is only located on the first non-transmission area of the substrate; and a second solar cell provided in the form of a stripe directly on a top surface of the second non-transmission area of the substrate, wherein the second solar cell is only located on the second non-transmission area of the substrate; and a refractive part provided on a top surface of the transmission area of the substrate, wherein the refractive part is only located on the transmission area of the substrate and wherein the refractive part refracts at least a portion of an incident light to the first or second non-transmission areas of the substrate; and wherein the refractive part includes a plurality of spaced apart lenses, wherein the plurality of lenses are between the first solar cell and the second solar cell, and wherein the first solar cell, the second solar cell and the plurality of lenses are coplanar.
