DaysE

Donate As You Save Energy (DaysE) facilitates social impact through energy and carbon emission reductions. We use an innovative fund-raising model to transfer energy and carbon savings as a means of funding energy projects in non-profit organisations. Both the non-profit beneficiary and the donor benefit from reduced energy bills. Collaboration is central to our model of social impact through energy. Commercial energy users may be wasting energy needlessly while others can’t afford or access it. We support large energy users in making savings through energy upgrades. Through collaboration with DaysE, they donate the value of their ‘energy waste’ and or offset their carbon emissions by contributing towards energy efficiency measures in non profit organisations. Through the DaysE model, the donation is spent on energy efficiencies, reducing energy bills and carbon emissions from then on. In Ireland and with the collaboration of a Utility Supplier, donations can take the form of energy credits at no cost to the donor. Alternatively, donations can take the form of services, supplies and financial contributions based on savings made. This is a donation which keeps on giving unlike most ‘regular’ donations which are spent and gone.
