Sun on a roof in Gregory.
The PVWatts model puts a generic roof array in Gregory at 1,540 kWh a year for each kW of panels, using typical-year weather from a station 1.5 km away. A modeled estimate for a standard setup, not a measurement of any roof.

How Gregory comparesderived from the figures above
Where Gregory sits.
Gregory ranks 411th of 1220 Texas places modeled here, at the 66th percentile. Its 1,540 kWh per kW is above the Texas median of 1,515. The strongest months are August, June, July and the weakest are December, January, February; output peaks in August and bottoms out in December. In all, 29.1% of the year arrives in June, July and August, less than the 29.3% of the median place.

Against San Antonio
The nearest of the six largest modeled places is San Antonio, 209 km to the northwest, at 1,505 kWh per kW. Gregory models 35 kWh per kW (2.3%) above it. Gregory lies 1.54 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 two weather stations sit a similar distance from their points (1.5 km and 2.2 km), so station distance does little to explain the gap, and the weather record does the rest.
The second-nearest large place is Austin, 268 km north, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Gregory runs 57 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Gregory runs at least 2% higher in February, May, October, November. It runs at least 2% lower in January, July.
Electricity in San Patricio CountyEIA-861
Electricity prices nearby
EIA lists AEP Texas Central in this county. Where Gregory is on AEP Texas Central's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Gregory 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.
Also listed in the county
- San Patricio Electric Coop Inc: 14.16¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 10,087 residential customers across 9 counties.
- AEP Texas Central Company: 5.91¢ per kWh, delivery charges only, before the retail energy price, 793,896 residential customers across 44 counties.
These utilities serve other parts of the county, which can include parts of Gregory. 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 Gregory 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.

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.

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.
