The weather mechanism may be dubious, but the energy absorption claim is not.
PV panels will absorb most of the solar energy, literally why they look black. A small percentage of that is converted into electricity and the rest is released as heat either through convection or radiation back to the surroundings. So a local warm zone above the panels is very likely.
Whether it's enough to affect the weather is another matter altogether.
