Against Houston

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 181 km to the south, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Lufkin models 60 kWh per kW (4.2%) below it. Lufkin lies 1.53 degrees of latitude north of Houston, and the sun stands higher in the sky the further south you go, which matches its lower modeled output. The two weather stations sit a similar distance from their points (1.5 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, 252 km northwest, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Lufkin runs 138 below that figure. It runs at least 2% lower in January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.

Electricity prices nearby

EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery in this county. Where Lufkin is on Oncor Electric Delivery's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Lufkin 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 1,362 kWh at $209 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

Size the array, see the kWh.

Scale the Lufkin 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 15.47¢ per kWh. At that rate the modeled output is worth $211 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
