Solar in Melissa

What Melissa homeowners should know about their solar

Real, local context for keeping a solar system healthy in Melissa, Collin County.

Your utility

Oncor is the wires utility for Collin County. Texas is deregulated, so there is no statewide net metering — your solar export credit depends on your retail electricity plan, not the utility.

Expected production

At Melissa’s ~4.9 peak sun hours, a typical 7 kW system produces roughly 10,000 kWh/year. If yours is running well below that, it’s worth a service check.

Local climate

North-Central Texas (Collin County) Blackland Prairie in “Hail Alley” — severe spring hailstorms are the dominant risk, plus tornadoes (a 1921 tornado struck the town).

Permits & local notes

Melissa Building Inspections is the AHJ; the city confirms electric via Oncor and/or Grayson-Collin co-op by location — verify. Laid out in 1872 when the Houston and Texas Central Railway arrived; named for a railroad official’s daughter.
