As long as the carbon taxes actually go towards helping the problem and not filling bank balances. For instance they could spend the taxes on planting trees-
As trees grow, they help stop climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the trees and soil, and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.

Pretty obvious reasoning.
When it comes to solar panels I can give a solid opinion. My bought my house December 2013 in Mildura, Australia. This is a very sunny location and very normal to hit over 40 degrees Celsius (104F). The house came with 15 panels already on the roof. Yes, during summer the panels work well giving me credit on the power bill but the current cost on buying and installing panels wouldn't be worth it.
So again it comes back to what are the taxes being used on. They should be used to lower solar panel prices and/or planting trees but I somehow feel a few people are just getting richer and very little of the money is actually being used.
