“With energy costs at near record levels, monitoring energy usage is a top concern for retailers today,” said Bill Coulombe, president of Emerson Climate, retail solutions division. “These new tools will deliver a complete view of a retailer’s energy usage, enabling them to prioritize improvements and reduce energy usage.”
With the ProAct software suite, users can produce ‘energy targets’ that predict each store’s total energy usage under various conditions. Armed with this model, the ProAct software suite compares actual energy usage with the energy target and provides reports that identify costly increases or decreases in energy usage. This information can also be used to identify and prioritize maintenance issues to ensure that retailers get the most out of every maintenance dollar.
The ProAct software suite is a key component of Emerson’s Intelligent Store architecture. The Intelligent Store architecture establishes an integrated suite of products and services that provides retail operators with a new level of operational sophistication. When combined, these innovative Emerson Climate products and services are proven to enable maintenance, energy and other operational savings. Also included in the Intelligent Store architecture are the E2 Facility Management System, Control Link device controllers, Intelligent Store Discus compressors, select Lennox rooftop units, and other third-party devices.
