address these and other common needs. As people around
the world are becoming increasingly concerned with their
individual energy usage and its impact on the environment,
Emerson is working to help countries like China improve
overall efciency standards and consume less power.
In other Emerson Climate Technologies businesses, we’re
working to make sensors and equipment more reliable by
adding electronics for diagnostics to improve efciency and
reduce system maintenance costs. Much like our “smart”
valves used in the process industries, these components
anticipate problems and alert the operator that part of the
system requires attention.
Many of these components are available in our Intelligent
StoreTM solution. This Emerson solution, with a global focus,
is used by some of the largest convenience and grocery store
chains in North America and Europe and is emerging in Asia.
Intelligent Store technologies allow retailers to remotely
monitor and control energy consumption, comfort levels,
equipment maintenance, and even food quality. The suite of
products provides maintenance, energy, and reliability gains
for owners and operators.
Emerson’s global reach is in itself a big factor in our success
around the world. With our global footprint, we have
successfully adapted technologies that were developed
for one region in order to meet emerging needs in other
regions. In this way, Emerson truly takes a world view to
conducting business without borders.
We are there
