What makes League City different
League City (population ~98,312) gets 4.74 peak sun hours per day — that's 11% less sunny than the Texas average of 5.3. Slightly less local sunlight means panels produce a touch less than the state average, so sizing and orientation matter. Electricity rates, net metering, and incentives are set at the Texas level: residents pay about 14.6¢/kWh, and no state mandate; utility solar buyback plans + local rebates.
