Against Houston

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 49 km to the southwest, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Roman Forest models 2 kWh per kW (0.1%) below it. The two figures are within 1 percent, which is about the size of the difference you get from two neighboring weather stations alone, so this page's result is effectively the same as Houston's.

The second-nearest large place is Austin, 250 km west, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Roman Forest runs 63 below that figure. It runs at least 2% lower in January, February, March, April, June, July, August, September, October.

Size the array, see the kWh.

Scale the Roman Forest 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 $219 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
