Whether you're a primary school, secondary school, ETB, third-level campus or childcare facility, De Energy Hub manages who charges for free, who pays, and gives you a ready-made monthly report, with no hardware and no admin burden on your staff.
Once your chargers are live, staff, visitors and reporting all run themselves.
The school issues free access codes to staff and sets a per-kWh rate for visitors and parents, both configured once from the dashboard.
A staff member scans the QR code at their bay, enters their code, and checks in via the app to charge at no cost, automatically logged against their account.
A parent, contractor or visitor scans the same QR code, books through the app, and pays only for the electricity they use, no staff involvement needed.
Every session, staff or visitor, is logged with kWh, energy source and cost, visible in past and upcoming bookings, useful for the board or Green Flag application.
De Energy Hub manages ordinary parking bays exactly the same way it manages EV chargers: same QR codes, same booking flow, same reporting.
Link a parking space and a charger into one bookable session, useful for open evenings or event parking where some visitors need to charge and most just need a space, all on the same QR code.
One access model, whatever the size or type of site.
Staff charge free, visitors and parents pay per kWh at drop-off or events.
Multi-site accounts manage chargers across every centre from one dashboard.
Larger car parks, multiple chargers, and staff/student/visitor access split.
A single charger, set up the same way, in minutes.
No spreadsheets, no manual counting: the numbers are already there in your bookings.
Staff benefit, visitor revenue, and audit-ready records: all from one dashboard.
Issue staff a code for complimentary charging as a workplace benefit, usage still fully tracked per person, no cash or fob involved.
Parents, contractors and event visitors pay only for the electricity they use, set your own rate, adjust it any time from the dashboard.
Every session logs kWh, cost and energy source, visible in your bookings, useful for Green Flag applications, board packs or Department of Education sustainability returns.
Staff codes waive the charging cost entirely: the full cost is calculated first, then deducted, so nothing is charged and refunded after the fact.
Every De Energy Hub charger, schools included, runs on Pure, Smart or Boost energy, and the source is logged on every session for your records.
School features current as of August 2026. Availability and onboarding details for Irish schools may change, so get in touch for the latest.
