Against Fort Worth

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 183 km to the southeast, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Burkburnett models 51 kWh per kW (3.3%) above it. Burkburnett lies 1.29 degrees of latitude north 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 two weather stations sit a similar distance from their points (2.4 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, 219 km southeast, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Burkburnett runs 86 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Burkburnett runs at least 2% higher in January, February, March, April, May, June, August, October. It runs at least 2% lower in November.

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery and AEP Texas North in this county. Where Burkburnett is on Oncor Electric Delivery and AEP Texas North's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Burkburnett 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 1,586 kWh at $243 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

These utilities serve other parts of the county, which can include parts of Burkburnett. 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 Burkburnett 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 $244 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.
