To reduce the total number of mooring and to stably moor solar cell modules on the water regardless of arrangement forms of the solar cell modules.SOLUTION: A supporting structure of a floating photovoltaic power generation system has multiple solar cell modules 2, and a float 3 to support the solar cell modules 2 and to float on the water surface. The float 3 comprises a mooring member 5 to constrain the float 3 to a fixed position on the water surface, the multiple solar cell modules 2 are supported in an inclined state on the float 3, and inclination directions of light-receiving surfaces of the respective solar cell modules 2 are aligned in a specific direction. The mooring member 5 is a peripheral edge part of the float 3 and is connected to positions of both right and left sides with respect to the inclination directions of the light-receiving surfaces.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】太陽電池モジュールの配置形態に関わらず、太陽電池モジュールを水上に安定的に係留するとともに全体の係留数を低減する。【解決手段】複数の太陽電池モジュール２と、これらの太陽電池モジュール２を支持して水面に浮くフロート３とを有する水上太陽光発電システムの支持構造であって、フロート３には、フロート３を水面の定位置に拘束する係留部材５が備えられ、複数の太陽電池モジュール２はフロート３上に傾斜状態で支持され、各太陽電池モジュール２の受光面の傾斜方向が特定方向に揃えられている。係留部材５は、フロート３の辺縁部であって、受光面の傾斜方向に対して左右両側となる位置に接続されている。【選択図】図１
