Solar panels won’t produce reactive power as a DC generator, but using a power converter and converting the variable DC power from solar panels into AC power can draw reactive power depending on load and power system parameters.
[pdf] Romania was a major player in the solar power industry, installing in the 1970s and 1980s around 800,000 m (8,600,000 sq ft) of low quality solar collectors that placed the country third worldwide in the total surface area of PV cells. One of the most important solar projects was the installation of a 30 kW solar panel on the roof of the that is capable of producing 60 MWh of electricity per year.
