The trendy thing to do these days is go “green.” From hybrid cars to biodegradable spoons made from corn-oil, looking out for the environment is “cool.” And even Sprint’s getting in on the trend.
As a sponsor for the 2007 Solar Decathlon, Sprint believes in keeping environmental impact to a minimum. And, as such, they are currently researching alternative fuel sources to provide power to equipment that would increase network reliability and capacity. From hydrogen fuel-cells to solar- and wind-power, Sprint may be pumping upwards of $7 billion into the development of these “green” power sources.
Way to go, Sprint. But with your finances stretched thin (remember that WiMAX build-out you have planned?), and no CEO, you might want to re-think that $7 billion development cost. Still, we gotta hand it to you for thinking “green.”
