Emerson has received the 2023 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Energy. The Energy Management award recognizes companies that have superior energy management programs and demonstrated their commitment to environmental protection and continuous improvement in their buildings and facilities.
Emerson has tracked and benchmarked energy usage at more than 200 global sites that are designated ‘major energy-consuming facilities,’ as well as more than 500 other offices and service centers.
Over the past four years, Emerson has conducted dozens of Energy Treasure Hunts and implemented an array of energy-savings measures resulting in a 45% reduction in scope 1 and 2 greenhouse house gas emissions and a 23% reduction in energy intensity compared to a 2018 baseline.
“This award recognizes the significant strides made by Emerson’s ‘Greening Of’ initiative to improve our environmental sustainability performance and achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions across our global operations by 2030,” said Mike Train, Emerson’s chief sustainability officer. “We are on a strong path forward and will continue to drive an aggressive sustainability agenda to create tangible change not only for our company, but also for the broader communities we serve.”
In addition to energy efficiency programs, Emerson also has focused on sourcing renewable electricity and constructing onsite generation systems at facilities around the globe, including Brazil, Hungary, China and the United States.
