Solar panels work by converting the light energy to electricity. The way anti solar panel makes it sound is that it gets energy from the lack of light, which isn’t possible.
I agree, but stretching the logic a bit: not all “solar panels” are photovoltaic. Some are simple heat collectors (often used for heating water) and those could be used in reverse during night times as radiative cooling to drive a stirling pump or something like that.
But nothing of that is explained in this really bad article with the click-bait headline.
