In this paper we have presented an energy management system for the ICT infrastructures designed to saving the energy consumption. This system is totally complementary with others approaches oriented to the energy saving and is enough flexible to adapt to different scenarios. One of the most relevant aspects of this system consists of providing these embedded management services in network devices with small size, simple, low power consumption, adjusted costs, autonomous, designed with safety criteria and robustness, and compatible with the traditional network services through the standard protocols such as: SOAP, SMTP or HTTP. In order to validate the proposal, a functional prototype has been designed and implemented. The prototype has been used in a real scenario where we have obtained satisfied results. We are currently working with other embedded network services and integrating them all in a model based on Semantic Web Services, so that in future they will not only be compatible with existing services, but also with new services or setups which were not considered in the initial design.
