While we’ re on the topic of people, Trent elaborates on how Emerson recruits and retains the best talent in the industry.“ We hire people with diverse backgrounds and experiences, and we clearly communicate a career path and employee value proposition, which is often well received by our new hires,” he says.“ Emerson emphasizes a culture of psychological safety, which is essential for fostering innovation, and while we’ re a process-driven and resultsfocused organization, we recognize that true innovation requires taking risks. Not every initiative will meet all commercial goals or perform as expected, and that’ s okay. We encourage our engineers and employees to learn from these experiences, analyze, adjust, and keep moving forward. If we want to solve some of the world’ s biggest challenges, we must create an environment where it’ s okay to try, fail, and try again.”
As part of its mission, Emerson is committed to making the world healthier, safer, smarter, and more sustainable through both operational improvements and innovative solutions that help its customers achieve sustainability goals.“ From 2021 through to September 2023( the end of our fiscal year), we have achieved a 44 percent reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions,” Trent reveals.“ In the natural gas market, there is a strong focus on reducing emissions through technologies such as reduced- or nobleed devices and the integration of hydrogen and biogas into the energy grid. We offer a comprehensive line of regulator solutions compatible with 100 percent hydrogen designed for both blending and pure H 2 applications. Additionally, our regulating and odorization solutions support biogas injection applications, and our biogas solutions are part of the European Union’ s REPowerEU initiative, which aims to produce 35 billion cubic meters of biomethane by 2030.”
