Solar Energy Production From A South Texas Solar Panel Installation
Solar panels in Texas produce between 1,200 to 1,600 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year per kilowatt dc (kWdc) installed, depending on the tilt, orientation and shading of the solar panels and the type of inverter installed.
This means that: ·
- a 1 kW system can produce from 1,200 to 1,600 kWh per year
- a 3 kW system can produce from 3,600 to 4,800 kWh per year
- a 5 kW system can produce from 6,000 to 8,000 kWh per year
- a 10 kW system can produce from 12,000 to 16,000 kWh per year
What’s The Catch On This AEP Texas Solar Rebate?
Incentive funding is offered to eligible customers with complete applications on a first-come, first-served basis.
At the time of writing, the funds for residential programs have been total reserved for 2018 installations.
However, there is a chance that you can get on a wait-list to receive the residential solar rebate for next year (2019). For non-residential customers, rebates are still available in both AEP Texas Central and AEP Texas North service areas.
