Against Houston

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 28 km to the northwest, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Deer Park models 45 kWh per kW (3.2%) above it. At 0.1 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 (1.9 km and 2.4 km), so station distance does little to explain the gap, and the weather record does the rest.

The second-nearest large place is Austin, 262 km west, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Deer Park runs 16 below that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Deer Park runs at least 2% higher in March, November. It runs at least 2% lower in February, April, May, June, July, August, December.

Size the array, see the kWh.

Scale the Deer Park 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 15.47¢ per kWh. At that rate the modeled output is worth $227 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
