  • METHOD FOR REPAIRING A SOLAR PANEL AND SOLAR PANEL
    Publication number: 20250126901
    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.

  • SYSTEM FOR ELECTRICALLY CONTACTING WAFER SOLAR CELLS, IN-LINE PRODUCTION DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A WAFER SOLAR CELL
    Publication number: 20240379895
    Abstract: A system for electrically contacting wafer solar cells with a front-face electrode, including: an upper contact device for electrically contacting the front-face electrode of the wafer solar cell, —a lower contact device for electrically contacting the rear-face electrode of the wafer solar cell, and an electric voltage source for applying a defined voltage to the wafer solar cell and regulating the flow of current between the upper and lower contact devices. The upper contact device and the lower contact device are designed to additionally mechanically convey the wafer solar cell along an in-line transport direction for an in-line production line for wafer solar cells while contacting the wafer solar cell.
