The photovoltaic device includes a base, a photovoltaic power panel disposed on the base to produce electric power using sunlight, and a reflector formed on the upper surface of the base, being provided to accommodate water, and having a receiving groove defined by a bottom and a sidewall extending from the bottom such that the sunlight is refracted according to a difference in refractive index between the air outside the receiving groove and the water accommodated in the receiving groove, and to be reflected toward a lower surface of the photovoltaic panel through the bottom or sidewall. Accordingly, the photovoltaic device may effectively collect sunlight from both sides of the photovoltaic panel to improve power generation efficiency.
