EMERSON CLIMATE TECHNOLOGIES™ PUBLISHES PAPER ON THE GROWING DEMAND FOR ENERGY INCENTIVES

Paper designed to persuade governments, utilities to offer financial incentives for implementing energy-saving technologies

ST. LOUIS, January 5, 2007 – Emerson Climate Technologies, a business of Emerson (NYSE: EMR), announced today that the company has published a white paper for the commercial refrigeration industry, utility companies, consortiums, and state governments. This paper, The Demand for Energy-Saving Incentives for High Efficiency Scroll Compressors in Walk-In Coolers, is the second white paper in Emerson Climate Technologies’ ongoing stewardship campaign to promote good energy policies. It addresses the industry’s concern and need for incentives for energy efficient refrigeration scroll compressors.

“Our company and our customers are committed to protecting the environment. As a result, we are reaching out to energy companies and regulatory bodies to make sure that our customers are rewarded and recognized for their environmental efforts,” said David Dunbar, president, Emerson Climate Technologies refrigeration division. “By continuing to work together, we can effectively address these important global issues.”

The white paper is intended to encourage utility companies, consortiums and state governments to implement energy-efficiency incentive programs for restaurants and convenience stores that purchase scroll compressor refrigeration equipment. The paper discusses the benefits of using high-efficiency scroll compressors in refrigeration applications by explaining how scroll compressors reduce on-site electricity demand in the foodservice industry.

“The use of high efficiency refrigeration equipment is extremely important, due to its reduction in on-site electricity usage,” said Rich Hasselman, energy advisor, Focus on Energy, a Wisconsin public-private partnership offering information and services to encourage energy efficiency and enhance the environment (www.focusonenergy.com). “By helping organizations like ours to further emphasize the benefits and savings involved in using energy efficient scroll compressors, this white paper will hopefully educate decision makers and help encourage widespread adoption of energy efficient equipment.

Another key benefit explained in this white paper is decreased carbon dioxide emissions related to the use of scroll compressors in walk in coolers for the foodservice industry. Scroll compressors reduce energy consumption by up to 20 percent. And, by using less energy, less fuel is needed, and energy related carbon dioxide emissions, a primary contributor to greenhouse gas, are thereby reduced.

The energy incentives white paper illustrates the positive impact of encouraging scroll compressor usage on states, utility companies, industry businesses and society as a whole. Those interested in downloading this white paper should visit EmersonClimate.com/energy.
