Methods of allocating energy generated by a community solar energy system

A method comprising:

• retrieving, from a database communicatively coupled to a server, a data record including at least one historic utility bill statement of a customer;
• determining, at the server, a historic energy usage rate of the customer based on the retrieved data record;
• determining, at the server, whether the customer is eligible to subscribe to a community solar energy generating system based on a geographic location of the community solar energy generating system, the determined historic energy usage rate of the customer, and the geographic location of the customer;
• determining, at the server, an allocation of energy produced by the community solar energy generating system when the eligible customer is enrolled in a subscription to the community solar energy generating system;
• generating, at the server, a customer data record based on one or more credits for the allocation of energy from the community solar energy generating system and receiving energy from another energy generating system;
• and
• transmitting, from the server via a communications network, the customer data record to a device of the customer to be displayed.
