Against Houston

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 41 km to the south, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Oak Ridge North models 25 kWh per kW (1.8%) below it. Oak Ridge North lies 0.37 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 (2.2 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 Austin, 222 km west, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Oak Ridge North runs 86 below that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Oak Ridge North runs at least 2% higher in December.
