Puts our innoVation to WorK.
Emerson Network Power technologies are at
work throughout the world to help customers
operate their data centers more efficiently
and effectively.
In 2009, Emerson will put these solutions to
work in our own new global data center. The
35,000-square-foot facility will enable Emerson
to consolidate 100 global data centers into four
locations in coming years.
These technologies, combined with the
overall design, will enable the company to use
31 percent less energy than a traditional data
center. Emerson anticipates receiving LEED
Silver Certification from the U.S. Green Building
Council and plans to use the new facility as a
showcase for data-center developers around
the world. Applying innovation at home.
