7lannin$

Emerson will s%end more than ;60 million to build a state&o#&the&art data center in St. Louis and

a bac+u% center in Iowa, the #irst %hase o# a %lan to consolidate its 100 com%uter centers around

the world into #our.

Bhe $oal is to increase e##iciency, im%rove %roductivity and stren$then networ+ security.

Bhe +ey com%onent is a %ower su%%ly that cannot be interru%ted X no s%i+es or outa$es,J Steve

>assell, EmersonAs chie# in#ormation o##icer, said in an interview 'u$. )2 with the :usiness

"ournal.

Bhe %rimary center in St. Louis will be 5,000 s*uare #eet o# new construction at EmersonAs

head*uarters in -er$uson and is e(%ected to be com%eted in "uly )009. Bhe bac+u% center in

Marshalltown, Iowa, will be about the same si@e but involves re#urbishin$ and e(%andin$ an

e(istin$ Emerson buildin$. It is e(%ected to be com%leted by March )009. Construction is under

way at both sites.

Pou try to ma+e them as close to mirrors as %ossible,J >assell said. I# you have a disaster, you

want to be able to shi#t to the bac+u% center without a lar$e disru%tion.J

-o( 'rchitects is the lead desi$ner o# the %ro?ect. Music+ Construction Co. is the $eneral

contractor, and Huarantee Electric Co. is the electrical contractor. >en$es Interiors, >ammertAs

Iron or+s, Kee "ay Cement Contractin$ and oy Hittemeir Contractors are also wor+in$ on the

St. Louis center.

hile the St. Louis center will run the %roduction servers that su%%ort EmersonAs daily

o%erations, the Iowa center will be used #or develo%ment and testin$, unless it is needed to bac+

u% St. Louis.

In the event o# a disaster, all o# those Marshalltown servers would sto% develo%ment and testin$,

and we would use them to run the business,J >assell said.

Bhe other two data centers %lanned as %art o# the %ro?ect will be in Sin$a%ore and somewhere in

estern Euro%e and will come online over the ne(t #ive years, >assell said. Bheir cost has not

been determined, but %resumably they will be smaller and located in leased #acilities.

Since EmersonAs %rimary business is to manu#acture and mar+et electrical, electromechanicaland electronic %roducts and systems, the new centers will be #illed with its own machinery.

ItAs $oin$ to be a showcase #or our %roducts,J >assell said. e will incor%orate EmersonAs #ull

suite o# %roducts and solutions,J includin$ ener$y&savin$ #eatures such as solar %anels that will

%rovide %ower.

ata centers are one o# the lar$est ener$y consumers,J he said. -or e(am%le, the electricity

used at the 5,000&s*uareoot center in St. Louis will be the e*uivalent o# all o# the other 1

million s*uare #eet o# o##ice s%ace we have here.J

:ut because o# desi$n e##iciencies, the St. Louis center will use 12. %ercent less electricity than

a traditional data center, he said. Bhat/s about ;100,000 in annual savin$s.

Emerson, with ;)) billion in annual revenue, has 140,000 em%loyees worldwide, includin$

45,000 in the !.S. and Canada and ),400 in St. Louis. It has )6 manu#acturin$ #acilities.

EmersonAs new data center not only enhances its $lobal business o%erations, but it also

contributes to the economic $rowth weAre e(%eriencin$ in St. Louis,J said St. Louis County

E(ecutive Charlie ooley.

>assell noted that St. Louis is becomin$ a bit o# a hub #or lar$e&com%any data centers.

MasterCard, Scottrade and Monsanto also built data centers here in the %ast two years. St. Louis

has the in#rastructure in telecommunications and a##ordable ener$y.J

Advancing Environmental Stewardship

Policies and Programs Reduce Energy Consumption and Protect the Environment Environmental responsibility stands at the forefront of today’s global corporate agenda. Emersonaddresses this responsibility in two primary ways: 1) through our commitment to provide productsand services that improve energy efficiencies and reduce potential harm to the environment, and )

through our efforts to operate our facilities in a manner that protects the environment, meets ore!ceeds government re"uirements, and continually reduces energy consumption and waste. #urglobal reach affords us a broad environmental perspective that balances advances in livingstandards and prosperity with potential impact on the planet and the well$being of future generations.

Emerson’s environmental stewardship efforts include:

• %eveloping technologies that help customers address environmental challenges

• Applying cost$effective and energy$efficient manufacturing processes

• &omplying with laws that protect the environment

'ollowing are illustrations of our commitment.

Innovative Technologies for a Greener WorldEmerson began intently addressing customers’ environmental challenges in the 1(*s when ourengineers mastered new technologies to improve energy utili+ation in concert with advancing thestandard of living for all people. 'rom &opeland Scroll compressors that drive greater energyefficiencies in heating and air conditioning systems to power technologies that facilitate green datacenters and telecommunications networ-s, our engineers conceive and develop products andsolutions that reduce resource consumption while delivering reliable benefits.

As the strain on natural resources increases, we all share a responsibility to limit the use of energy

and activities that harm the environment. Emerson’s products and services address environmentalissues in three ways:

• Enabling efficient use of energy. E!tracting the most value from available energy

resources re"uires new solutions and technologies. Emerson innovation minimi+es the

environmental impact of our residential, commercial and industrial products. n addition to

creating solutions that advance energy efficiency, we participate in numerous industry and

governmental efforts to define, promote and measure efficiency improvements.

• Supporting cleaner forms of energy production. #ur technologies and solutions help shift

electrical power generation to approaches that lower carbon footprints, utili+ing energysources such as wind, solar, nuclear, hydro and natural gas.

• Providing technologies that monitor and limit emissions. #ur sensor advances and

wireless connectivity provide cost$effective industrial monitoring and better access to

emissions data and management.

Energy Saving perating Initiatives /e target annual energy$efficiency initiatives throughout our operations. n **, for e!ample, ourassessments at manufacturing facilities identified a range of cost$effective opportunities tosignificantly reduce energy costs.

Environmental perating Compliance/e annually assess the environmental compliance of each Emerson facility. n this process, weanaly+e the procedures and performance of our facilities against standards set by local or 0.S. law whichever sets a higher standard. 'urthermore, when ac"uiring companies, we assess theirenvironmental policies and procedures to correct any issues or shortcomings.

Emerson also considers the environmental aspects of how we design, engineer and manufactureproducts, ensuring that materials and processes are safe and adhere to industry standards andinitiatives such asWEEE 2/aste Electrical and Electronic E"uipment regulation)and Ro!S 23estriction of 4a+ardous Substances) directives.
