CSO Mike Train, CTO Peter Zornio and Power & Water President
Bob Yeager will speak at Reuters
Energy Transition North America 2023 Conference
HOUSTON, Nov. 2, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Top executives from global software and technology
company Emerson (NYSE: EMR) predict companies that prioritize
innovation designed to curb carbon emissions and explore new energy
sources will realize both financial and environmental benefits for
their efforts. For Houston-based
energy companies, embracing innovation will also keep the city at
the forefront of emerging developments and help maintain its
leadership as the energy capital of the world.
During the 2023 Reuters Energy Transition North America
conference Nov. 7 to 8 in
Houston, three Emerson leaders
will share thoughts on the intersection among technology,
sustainability objectives and operational performance:
- Emerson Chief Sustainability Officer Mike Train will share observations on how
meeting long-term net zero targets will require a new mindset
toward innovation, with early-stage examples in development
today.
- Chief Technology Officer Peter Zornio will talk about
future software and technology architectures to better support
evolving operating models and provide recent examples of
sustainability-specific technology advancements.
- Bob Yeager, Emerson's president of power and water, will
discuss how automation technologies help power companies transform
renewable energy sources – which can be unpredictable – into
reliable power using real-time demand forecasting, operational
visibility and analytics across the power network.
"The past 10 years have seen enormous progress in digital
transformation, and many of those technologies available today can
help industry achieve short-term 2030 sustainability goals," said
Train. "Yet reaching the world's targets for 2050 will require a
step change in innovation with technologies not available today and
a different leadership mindset to support these projects."
As strategic sponsor of the conference, Emerson will host an
exhibit of its automation solutions that help reduce emissions,
improve energy usage and optimize operations for the energy,
chemical, hydrogen, carbon capture, biofuels, power and other
industries. Emerson's Train will keynote the second-day agenda;
Yeager will participate in the "Bearing the Load: The Price of
Decarbonization" panel; and Zornio will speak on "The Emergence of
a Clean Technology Suite" session.
