Sun on a roof in Todd Mission.
The PVWatts model puts a generic roof array in Todd Mission at 1,409 kWh a year for each kW of panels, using typical-year weather from a station 1.5 km away. A modeled estimate for a standard setup, not a measurement of any roof.

Against Houston
The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Houston, 67 km to the southeast, at 1,422 kWh per kW. Todd Mission models 13 kWh per kW (0.9%) 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, 184 km west, where the same model gives 1,483 kWh per kW, so Todd Mission runs 74 below that figure. It runs at least 2% lower in January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December.

- San Bernard Electric Coop, Inc: 14.11¢ per kWh, a bundled average, 32,557 residential customers across 8 counties.
They are the largest bundled providers 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. Priced at the first provider's average, the modeled 1,409 kWh would come to $196 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate.

Scale the Todd Mission 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 $217 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.
