Louisiana is a good state to install solar panels on https://a1solarstore.com/louisiana-solar-information.html. So you won't be in the negative. In freezing temperatures of about - 22 ° C. You need at least 120 kilowatts of thermal energy to keep your house at 20 degrees Celsius. You will need up to 90 panels. But in winter and in cloudy weather even they will not produce more than 20-25 kW per day.

Thank you for your help and information. Solar panels are now quite profitable and relevant to install. So I think I will do it myself in the near future. And I will save on electricity.

An average home requires between 20 and 25 solar panels to cover 100% of its electricity needs. You'll need to install a particular number of panels depending on several factors including your location, panel efficiency, panel rated power, and your personal energy consumption habits.
