Against San Antonio

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is San Antonio, 176 km to the north, at 1,505 kWh per kW. Freer models 35 kWh per kW (2.3%) above it. Freer lies 1.58 degrees of latitude south of San Antonio, and the sun stands higher in the sky the further south you go, which matches its higher modeled output. The weather station for Freer is 1.1 km from the modeled point, against 2.2 km for San Antonio, so part of the gap can come from which station's typical year was used.

The second-nearest large place is Austin, 282 km north, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Freer runs 57 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Freer runs at least 2% higher in February, March, May, October, December. It runs at least 2% lower in July, September, November.

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists AEP Texas Central in this county. Where Freer is on AEP Texas Central's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Freer 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 1,540 kWh at $236 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 Freer 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 $237 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
