Against Houston

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 178 km to the south, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Latexo models 35 kWh per kW (2.5%) above it. Latexo lies 1.6 degrees of latitude north of Houston, 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 (2.9 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 Dallas, 197 km northwest, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Latexo runs 43 below that figure. It runs at least 2% lower in January, February, March, May, June, July, August, September, November, December.

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery in this county. Where Latexo is on Oncor Electric Delivery's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Latexo 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 1,457 kWh at $223 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 Latexo 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 $224 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
