In fairness, solar panels do "suck up energy from the sun", approximately 20% to 30% of energy from the sun that strikes them in fact. They also have a detrimental effect on plant photosynthesis, but only in their immediate shadow. So, you know, there's merit to her argument, it's just a matter of scale.
Just like with the AGW alarmists. We know that extra CO2 will have a small warming effect on the atmosphere, just as solar cells will cast a small shadow. But that doesn't mean that all plant life in the vicinity will catastrophically die off, nor will extra CO2 in the atmosphere catastrophically cause the planet to boil.
Science people, Science.
