Hello everyone, and what does this encryption give? What exactly does it encrypt? and for what purposes?
Thanks

It's client-side encryption of all the data and some of the metadata. So you don't have to trust the hoster that is hosting your offsite PBS, as everything on the PBS remains encrypted all the time.

So PVE encypts backup before puts it to PBS ?

Yes
