Sun on a roof in Snyder.
The PVWatts model puts a generic roof array in Snyder at 1,669 kWh a year for each kW of panels, using typical-year weather from a station 2.4 km away. A modeled estimate for a standard setup, not a measurement of any roof.

Against Fort Worth
The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 333 km to the east, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Snyder models 134 kWh per kW (8.7%) above it. At 0.07 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 (2.4 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 Dallas, 387 km east, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Snyder runs 169 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Snyder runs at least 2% higher in January, February, March, April, May, June, August, September, October, November, December.
Electricity in Scurry CountyEIA-861
Electricity prices nearby
EIA lists Oncor Electric Delivery in this county. Where Snyder is on Oncor Electric Delivery's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of Snyder 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 1,669 kWh at $256 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.
Also listed in the county
- Big Country Electric Coop, Inc: 13.33¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 9,533 residential customers across 12 counties.
- Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC: 5.64¢ per kWh, delivery charges only, before the retail energy price, 3,545,814 residential customers across 99 counties.
These utilities serve other parts of the county, which can include parts of Snyder. They are the largest bundled providers, and the largest delivery-only one, whose EIA service territory lists the county. 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 Snyder 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 $257 per kW a year as plain multiplication.

Getting a measured number
A model cannot see your roof. Installers measure pitch, shade and the electrical panel on site. Quote marketplaces such as EnergySage, SolarReviews and WattBuy collect bids from local installers. Rate & Roof does not rank installers.

The sliders above price the energy at one rate. The payback calculator adds the system cost and your buyback plan type, and shows every assumption. It is an estimate, not advice.
