Against Fort Worth

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 238 km to the east, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Anson models 109 kWh per kW (7.1%) above it. At 0.03 degrees of latitude apart, the two sit at almost the same sun angle, so geometry explains little. The two weather stations sit a similar distance from their points (2.2 km and 1.5 km), so station distance does little to explain the gap, and the weather record does the rest.

The second-nearest large place is Dallas, 293 km east, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Anson runs 144 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Anson runs at least 2% higher in January, February, March, April, May, June, August, September, October, November, December.

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists AEP Texas North in this county. Where Anson is on AEP Texas North's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Anson may instead be served by a co-op or utility listed below, which sets its own rates; check your bill. For scale only, the median 2025 average price across the 60 Texas retail providers on this site is 15.32¢ per kWh, which would put the modeled 1,644 kWh at $252 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

Also listed in the county

• Taylor Electric Coop Inc: 16.14¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 19,215 residential customers across 11 counties.
• Big Country Electric Coop, Inc: 13.33¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 9,533 residential customers across 12 counties.

They are the largest bundled providers, and the largest delivery-only one, whose EIA service territory lists the county. A county can list several, and which one serves a street depends on the address, so check your bill.

Size the array, see the kWh.

Scale the Anson model to another array size, take off extra losses for shade or dirt, and price the energy at any rate. It is arithmetic on the PVWatts output above, nothing more: not a quote, not a savings estimate and not advice.

Starting rate: the Texas residential average of 15.4¢ per kWh. At that rate the modeled output is worth $253 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
