Sun on a roof in Crockett.
The PVWatts model puts a generic roof array in Crockett at 1,444 kWh a year for each kW of panels, using typical-year weather from a station 1.1 km away. A modeled estimate for a standard setup, not a measurement of any roof.

Against Houston
The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 170 km to the south, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Crockett models 22 kWh per kW (1.5%) above it. Crockett lies 1.53 degrees of latitude north of Houston, 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 Crockett is 1.1 km from the modeled point, against 2.4 km for Houston, so part of the gap can come from which station's typical year was used.
The second-nearest large place is Dallas, 205 km northwest, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Crockett runs 56 below that figure. It runs at least 2% lower in January, February, April, June, July, August, September, November, December.
Electricity in Houston CountyEIA-861
Electricity prices nearby
EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery in this county. Where Crockett is on Oncor Electric Delivery's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Crockett 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 1,444 kWh at $221 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

- Entergy Texas Inc.: 13.89¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 469,094 residential customers across 27 counties.
- Houston County Elec Coop Inc: 15.28¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 21,761 residential customers across 9 counties.

These utilities serve other parts of the county, which can include parts of Crockett. 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 Crockett 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 $222 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.
