Against Austin

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Austin, 28 km to the southeast, at 1,483 kWh per kW. Lago Vista models 15 kWh per kW (1.0%) above it. At 0.15 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 (1.0 km and 1.5 km), so station distance does little to explain the gap, and the weather record does the rest.

The second-nearest large place is San Antonio, 121 km southwest, where the same model gives 1,505 kWh per kW, so Lago Vista runs 7 below that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Lago Vista runs at least 2% higher in October. It runs at least 2% lower in February, March, August.

Scale the Lago Vista 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 $231 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
