Against Dallas

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Dallas, 198 km to the west, at 1,500 kWh per kW. Henderson models 63 kWh per kW (4.2%) below it. Henderson lies 0.63 degrees of latitude south of Dallas, 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 (2.2 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 Fort Worth, 249 km west, where the same model gives 1,535 kWh per kW, so Henderson runs 98 below that figure. It runs at least 2% lower in January, February, March, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery in this county. Where Henderson is on Oncor Electric Delivery's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Henderson 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 1,437 kWh at $220 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

Size the array, see the kWh.

Scale the Henderson 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 $221 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
