1. A method for producing solar modules (2), the method comprising:
combining solar elements (3) to form rows (4), wherein each said row (4) comprises at least two solar elements (3);
constructing the solar modules (2) from electrically interconnected rows (4), by adhesively bonding the rows (4) to one another using an electrically conductive adhesive in order to electrically and mechanically interconnect the rows (4) of solar elements (3); and
applying the electrically conductive adhesive to the solar elements (3) during a transfer movement of the rows (4).
