Abstract: A method for repairing a solar panel with a front-side-encapsulating element and a rear-side-encapsulating element, said method comprising the following steps: a) applying an adhesive paste or liquid to the rear-side-encapsulating element; b) applying a covering layer to the adhesive paste or liquid, and c) hardening the adhesive paste or liquid. The invention also relates to a solar panel comprising a front-side-encapsulating element, a rear-side-encapsulating element, an adhesive layer on a side of the rear-side-encapsulating element facing away from the front-side-encapsulating element, and a covering layer on a side of the adhesive layer facing away from the front-side-encapsulating element.

Abstract: A solar module rear side encapsulation element having a laminate-type layer construction having at least one polymer plate or polymer foil having a laminate surface. The laminate-type layer construction has at least one protective layer having layer openings. The protective layer covers at least 70% of the laminate surface by a covering area, and due to the layer openings at least 15% and maximum 99.9% of the regions of the solar module rear side encapsulation element lying under the protective layer are covered in the covering area, and the protective layer is formed as a structure made of threads, thus being open to diffusion.
