Sun on a roof in Aquilla.
The PVWatts model puts a generic roof array in Aquilla at 1,505 kWh a year for each kW of panels, using typical-year weather from a station 0.0 km away. A modeled estimate for a standard setup, not a measurement of any roof.

Against Fort Worth
The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 104 km to the north, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Aquilla models 30 kWh per kW (2.0%) below it. Aquilla lies 0.93 degrees of latitude south of Fort Worth, which on sun angle alone would point the other way, so clouds, haze and the weather station's record carry the difference. The weather station for Aquilla is 0.0 km from the modeled point, against 1.5 km for Fort Worth, so part of the gap can come from which station's typical year was used.
The second-nearest large place is Dallas, 113 km north, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Aquilla runs 5 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Aquilla runs at least 2% higher in October. It runs at least 2% lower in February, May, December.
Electricity in Hill CountyEIA-861
Electricity prices nearby
EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery and Texas-New Mexico Power in this county. Where Aquilla is on Oncor Electric Delivery and Texas-New Mexico Power's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Aquilla 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 1,505 kWh at $231 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

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 Aquilla 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 $232 per kW a year as plain multiplication.

Getting a measured number
A model cannot see your roof. Installers measure pitch, shade and the electrical panel on site. Quote marketplaces such as EnergySage, SolarReviews and WattBuy collect bids from local installers. Rate & Roof does not rank installers.

Payback, buyback.
The sliders above price the energy at one rate. The payback calculator adds the system cost and your buyback plan type, and shows every assumption. It is an estimate, not advice.
