What makes Norman different
Norman (population ~128,026) gets 4.9 peak sun hours per day — that's 4% less sunny than the Oklahoma average of 5.1.

Electricity rates, net metering, and incentives are set at the Oklahoma level: residents pay about 12.4¢/kWh, and net metering up to 25 kw (utility-dependent).
