Load one of the pre-made savegames, ones with an X at the end of the name. These were made so that you start with 1000 Energy Credits.
Also, when you complete a particular clad of dinos, you get the exact amount of Data Crystals it contains PLUS 1. So you may want to start with those clads which have only one or two species in them. I think it is possible to finish the game without having to buy any Data Crystals.
