Placing generator districts along the industrial ones would make more sense than building them on rural planets where there is little to power.
Swapping energy districts from rural designation to industrial.

No, because the industrial designation is for advanced resources (consumer goods and alloys) while the rural designation is for basic resources, which energy credits definitely are.

Energy Credits aren't for local power, they're for your empire. Hence why they're an empire-wide resource, as opposed to something like Amenities.
Yeah I have no understanding of how you can convert electricity to money and fuel factories with energy credits gained from commerce. Moneymass Burners?
Some productive new generator fields are also agricultural fields:
Farming under solar panels saves water and creates energy
Growing crops under the shade of solar panels, also called agrivoltaics, could boost food production, use less water, and make solar panels more efficient.

Because the Money represents units of Energy that you are allowed to expend. Hence why they're Energy *Credits.* It's not that your money is batteries, it's that your money is *backed by batteries.* The Battery-Standard.
Yet some events refer to "slots" you can put Energy Credits in, and others refer to Energy Credits as "chips".
And don't get me started on the idiocy where Gold converts directly into Energy Credits...
As with most things in Stellaris, try not to think too hard about it, that way lies only migraines.
And better yet, this standardized energy credit currency is apparently known to you before you contact other civilizations. Agreed, best not think about it.
My favorite part of the standardized energy credit currency is that it was apparently *also* known to ancient precursor species, to the degree that there are events where you can just... put an Energy Credit into a comically large gumball machine and get a canister of alloys out.

I've always operated on the assumption that energy transport is a solved problem and it's only credits when used as money. Anything else is a farce any way you slice it.
How do you transfer electrons faster than the speed at which electrons travel on their own in a vacuum?
How is that efficient at all?
It should be as inefficient as the USA minting pennies, at the very least, but currently it's perfectly efficient.
You don't, but other resources aren't taxed when used elsewhere either.
