Wind turbines can have local effects, meaning less wind in areas behind the turbines, which can mean smog stays longer in a city.
But like the other comment said, with solar you are not taking anything.
But solar panels do heat up the air around them more than vegetation would do.
They do. But they also keep that heat from reaching the ground, which is a good thing for many agricultural applications.
