Absolutely yes. Energy is captured by solar panels. They make a shade, obviously, and what is in their shade does not get heated by the sun. If you were to use 100% of solar panel energy to heat up something else the overall balance would be 0. Contrarily, nuclear fission/fusion that releases energy from its fuel, ultimately heating up the planet.
