Abstract:
Disclosed is a water tank having a power-generating function. The disclosed water tank having a power-generating function comprises: a storage unit, the interior of which has a water storage space, and having an open top and a bottom comprising an outlet portion; and a solar cell module which is mounted on the top of the storage unit, such that an inlet portion is formed to feed water into the storage unit, and which receives solar light and generates electrical energy. Water such as rainwater can be fed into the water tank through the inlet portion formed at the periphery of the solar cell module and stored in the water tank, and water stored in the water tank can be used as needed. The solar cell module is mounted on the top of the water tank, and thus does not occupy space, which prevents the problem of occupying land and reduces general costs related thereto. As described above, the solar cell module, which might otherwise occupy a large amount of space, and a water tank are coupled together, to thereby reduce the costs associated with purchasing land.
