Against Fort Worth

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 427 km to the east, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Los Ybanez models 205 kWh per kW (13.4%) above it. At 0.06 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 (2.2 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 El Paso, 435 km west, where the same model gives 1,835 kWh per kW, so Los Ybanez runs 95 below that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Los Ybanez runs at least 2% higher in January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.
