Corporate Social Responsibility for Companies in Ireland

One of the most frequently asked questions that probably for all those individuals and organisations dealing with CSR issues is the obvious, is just what does “Corporate Social Responsibility” mean anyway?

First of all, what is CSR?
“CSR is the integration by companies of social and environmental concerns in their business operations and in their interaction with their stakeholders on a voluntary basis.” The concept of social responsibility means going beyond the fulfillment of legal requirements by investing more in human capital, the environment, and relations with stakeholders. It is a voluntary instrument, but must be implemented reliably so that it fosters trust and confidence among stakeholders.
The concept of CSR encompasses the ways in which a business contributes to a better society by actively engaging with and consulting stakeholders, including customers, employees, shareholders and the local community, in a manner that goes beyond the company’s financial and legal obligations. Through CSR, companies are working voluntarily to integrate social and environmental concerns into their everyday business operations.

CSR has been shown to result in a number of business benefits, including: customer attraction and retention; increased value and reputation; attraction and retention to of staff; better corporate governance; increased revenues; and improved efficiency.
Over the past 100 years, human activities have triggered a series of resources and environmental problems. Our planet is faced with severe challenges. Every country and nation, every enterprise and individual, should feel duty-bound to take actions and unswervingly promote green development.

Energy Sense Ireland has partnered with DonQi windmills to promote this concept to organizations in Ireland the launch of DonQi’s unique venture wind turbine. The DonQi Venturi Windmill is a high performance windmill using modern aero-dynamic techniques. It performs in light breezes and violent storms with practically no noise and an outstanding energy production. With every part designed to function maintenance free for at least 15 years, it features a silencer and a unique venture design that can generate up to 50% more electricity than traditional windmills.

New technologies are making “microwind” a reality and, in Europe, Dutch companies have developed small turbines that can be easily installed on rooftops today. It is the case of donQi, a young company started in the Netherlands with the intention of providing decentralized power generation for urban and rural areas.

DonQi’s urban turbines are easy to install and can be ready in a couple of hours; also, they can be connected to the grid. Prices are affordable, and both the EU and the different countries are putting several financial instruments in place to help businesses to green. Their unique style, appearance and option for company logo really stand out at client’s premises.

The DonQi wind turbine gives several benefits to clients when looking at Corporate Social Responsibility. It can boost your organisation’s corporate image and identity; have a high impact with local residents and high visibility from its premises. The project can also contribute to attracting positive media coverage, both nationally and locally.
