Initially yes, a tiny bit, but long term no: it will go to a new equilibrium, where over time just as much leaves as enters. Except thanks to the extra water that is being retained locally, the local environment will be greener + more temperate than without the panels. And that new green lung is likely to have beneficial effects further away as well, similar to forests.
