Abstract
A solar panel includes a protection plate, a back cover, photovoltaic battery cells, a conductive member that electrically connects the photovoltaic battery cells to one another, and an encapsulant that is integrated with and located between the protection plate and the back cover. The encapsulant encapsulates the photovoltaic battery cells and the conductive member and fixes the photovoltaic battery cells and the conductive member to the protection plate and the back cover. The protection plate includes a resin transparent member, which is translucent from a front surface to a rear surface, and a resin opaque member, which is located at an outer side of each of the photovoltaic battery cells, shields the conductive member, and is arranged on the rear surface of the transparent member and integrated with the transparent member.
