AT&T Launches Energy-Saving Software

lightbulb.gifAT&T is launching the www.att.com/csr from 1E on 310,000 desktop computers across its domestic operations to help improve energy efficiency. Powering down corporate PCs during non-work hours is expected to save AT&T more than 135 million kilowatt hours of electricity a year and eliminate 123,941 tons of carbon dioxide emissions equivalent to the electricity required to power 14,892 homes.

Reducing energy consumption during non-peak hours is one way AT&T is striving to minimize the environmental impact of its operations. The company is working to enhance energy performance and reduce energy consumption in company buildings, data centers, IT systems and networks. AT&T has begun to use alternative energy sources such as wind and solar power, and it conserves natural resources through waste reduction, recovery and recycling efforts. AT&T also helps customers further manage their own environmental impact through intelligent use of AT&T products and services, such as teleconferencing, video conferencing and other broadband applications.
