Emerson Process Management’s
‘Smart Energy Initiative’ is designed to
combine the company’s industrial
energy expertise with advanced
energy management technologies. The
aim is to enable customers to leverage
more renewable fuels, lower energy
costs and reduce emissions.

Emerson’s Industrial Energy Group
will focus on modernising and
improving the performance of powerhouses,
the onsite utilities that provide
steam and electricity to power
industrial operations, while
improving how the manufacturing
process consumes energy. A holistic
approach, it is said to ensure efficiency
in production of energy, and to
reduce waste and inefficiencies where
energy is used.

At the heart of Emerson’s
integrated platform technology is its
‘true energy’ technology, an
innovation for calculating the actual
calorific values of fuel sources.

The company’s software, combined
with field control technologies, enables
the powerhouse to interchangably use
the most available and affordable
renewable or waste fuels to create
steam to power their operations.
