摘要： Provided is an artificial-photosynthesis array configured of artificial-photosynthesis modules which have been arranged in one or more rows and which receive light and decompose a supplied aqueous electrolyte solution to thereby obtain hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. The artificial-photosynthesis modules each includes an electrolytic chamber for hydrogen where hydrogen gas is generated and an electrolytic chamber for oxygen where oxygen gas is generated, the chambers being isolated from each other. The electrolytic chambers for hydrogen and electrolytic chambers for oxygen of the artificial-photosynthesis modules are alternately connected so that the electrolytic chamber for hydrogen of each artificial-photosynthesis module is connected to the electrolytic chamber for oxygen of another module and the electrolytic chamber for oxygen of each artificial-photosynthesis module is connected to the electrolytic chamber for hydrogen of another module.
