1. A computer-implemented method of dispatching energy from a generator for a customer associated with a property, the method comprising:
accessing (i) a set of energy usage data associated with the customer, and (ii) rate data indicating a cost of utility power and a cost of operating the generator;
determining, by a controller based on the set of energy usage data and the rate data, a set point at which it is cheaper to dispatch power from the generator than the property receiving the utility power;
requesting, by the controller, an automatic transfer switch of the generator to activate dispatching of the power from the generator according to the set point; and
collecting, by the controller when the generator is dispatching the power, data indicating an amount of power being output by the generator.
