Creating a more sustainable future is at the heart of everything we do
Every day, we help businesses and organisations decarbonise and digitise their operations. We do this by making it easy to access funding for solar, energy-efficiency equipment and smart technologies via our range of payment solutions.
We know that over a quarter of carbon emissions come from electricity production. By helping organisations switch to solar and other energy-efficiency technologies, faster, we’re helping to reduce emissions today – as well as accelerating our transition to a carbon-free future.
So far, we’ve helped over 10,000 organisations to decarbonise and digitise their operations. It’s our ambition to fund $1b in clean-energy technologies by 2030.
Our Net Zero commitment
Reducing carbon emissions is hard-wired into our product range, but we don’t stop there.
We’re proud to be working on our own roadmap to achieve Net Zero as a business, beginning with a commitment to addressing our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2025.[1]
1% Project
We give 1% of our revenue to projects that benefit both the planet and our community. Our current 1% Project with the incredible not-for-profit Cool.org will help schools worldwide educate their students about sustainability.
The initiative has given rise to a new suite of educational resources that will empower thousands of students to understand their energy usage and adopt solutions within their schools and homes.
Volunteering for social and environmental good
Each Smart Ease team member volunteers two days per year in their local community to support meaningful projects that contribute to better social or environmental outcomes.
Team members nominate the projects in their communities that align with these criteria.
[1] Scope 1 emissions are direct greenhouse gas emissions from sources owned or controlled by a reporting entity, while Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions associated with the consumption of purchased electricity, heat, or steam.
