the reflectivity of solar panels can heat air..... they also shade the ground so that less heat is absorbed and so less heat radiation after the sun goes down.... but this is a very minor factor.
what I find most curious though is what happened when I searched https://www.cleanenergycouncil.org.au/search?query=micro+climate+impacts
I tried lots of different ways to find your article but it doesn't seem to exist on the Climate Council website.
Are you sure this is genuine?
