Alcatel-Lucent has launched a new professional services suite called Sustainable Power, to reduce network energy consumption. This new solution is claimed to provide eco-friendly and sustainable network energy solutions for the reduction of energy consumption and costs.

According to the company, this new service will offer professional network services to help customers analyze their network's power consumption requirements, identify areas where improvements can be made to existing infrastructure as well as make recommendations on alternative energy solutions such as wind, solar, and fuel cells.

Alcatel-Lucent's Sustainable Power practice is a multi-vendor solution designed for mobile and wireline service providers, independent telecommunications providers, government agencies, corporations, municipalities and campuses. It ranges from detailed power and battery assessment, grounding survey, power design order, equipment engineering, material sourcing services, equipment installation to equipment and battery removal and disposition. The solution also supports planning and design services which mitigate the risk of a network outage as well as business contingency plans when implementing network power solutions.

Andy Williams, president of services business activities at Alcatel-Lucent, said: "Today, energy consumption is a global business challenge dramatically impacting the bottom line of every organization. Alcatel-Lucent is ready with a wide array of services to help customers in many industries improve their current network power consumption and to find ways to use emerging alternative technologies to prepare for a future where traditional energy resources will be costly and less available."
