Against Fort Worth

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 92 km to the north, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Whitney models 17 kWh per kW (1.1%) below it. Whitney lies 0.83 degrees of latitude south of Fort Worth, which on sun angle alone would point the other way, so clouds, haze and the weather station's record carry the difference. The weather station for Whitney is 2.9 km from the modeled point, against 1.5 km for Fort Worth, so part of the gap can come from which station's typical year was used.

The second-nearest large place is Dallas, 107 km northeast, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Whitney runs 18 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Whitney runs at least 2% higher in January, June, September. It runs at least 2% lower in May, November, December.

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 1,518 kWh at $233 per kW a year, plain multiplication and not a savings estimate or an offer.

Size the array, see the kWh.

Scale the Whitney 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 $234 per kW a year as plain multiplication.
