Sun on a roof in Jourdanton.

The PVWatts model puts a generic roof array in Jourdanton at 1,512 kWh a year for each kW of panels, using typical-year weather from a station 2.2 km away. A modeled estimate for a standard setup, not a measurement of any roof.

Against San Antonio

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is San Antonio, 61 km to the north, at 1,505 kWh per kW. Jourdanton models 7 kWh per kW (0.5%) above it. The two figures are within 1 percent, which is about the size of the difference you get from two neighboring weather stations alone, so this page's result is effectively the same as San Antonio's.

The second-nearest large place is Austin, 172 km northeast, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Jourdanton runs 29 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Jourdanton runs at least 2% higher in March, August, October. It runs at least 2% lower in February, April, September.

Electricity in Atascosa CountyEIA-861

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists AEP Texas Central in this county. Where Jourdanton is on AEP Texas Central's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Jourdanton 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 1,512 kWh at $232 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

Also listed in the county

  • City of San Antonio: 12.4¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 888,946 residential customers across 8 counties.
  • Medina Electric Coop, Inc: 12.54¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 30,778 residential customers across 17 counties.
  • Karnes Electric Coop Inc: 10.25¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 13,599 residential customers across 12 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 Jourdanton. 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 Jourdanton 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 $233 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.

  • A model estimate for a generic system at this point, not a measurement and not a promise of output.
  • Shading, roof pitch, equipment and local rates will differ.
  • All prices on this site are in cents per kWh unless marked otherwise. Bills are US dollars per month.
