Against Houston
The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 67 km to the east, at 1,422 kWh per kW. South Frydek models 51 kWh per kW (3.6%) above it. At 0.05 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 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, 172 km west, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so South Frydek runs 10 below that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, South Frydek runs at least 2% higher in October. It runs at least 2% lower in April, May, June, July, August, September, December.

Electricity prices nearby
EIA lists CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric in this county. Where South Frydek is on CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric's lines, homes buy energy from a retail electricity provider and the price depends on the plan. Parts of South Frydek 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 1,473 kWh at $226 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

Size the array, see the kWh.
Scale the South Frydek 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 $227 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.

Payback, buyback.
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.
