Emerson Wins 2021 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Award

Emerson announced that its Sensi smart thermostat received the 2021 ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy for the second consecutive year. 

Emerson’s Sensi brand was the first smart thermostat to receive the honor in 2020.

“Our smart thermostats are designed to reduce energy usage and costs to help our customers champion a more sustainable environment. Reducing our impact on the planet means rethinking our daily choices, and the Sensi smart thermostat makes it easier to make those choices without sacrificing comfort,” said Jamie Froedge, executive president of Emerson’s Commercial & Residential Solutions business. “We are grateful for engaged partners like ENERGY STAR and are proud to once again be recognized as Partner of the Year as a sustainable comfort solution.”

Each year, the ENERGY STAR program honors businesses and organizations that lead their industries in the production, sale and adoption of energy-efficient products, services and strategies. The Partner of the Year Award represents the highest level of recognition by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

“ENERGY STAR award-winning partners are showing the world that delivering real climate solutions makes good business sense and promotes job growth,” EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan said. “Many of them have been doing it for years, inspiring all of us who are committed to tackling the climate crisis and leading the way to a clean energy economy.”

The Sensi smart thermostat and Sensi Touch smart thermostat can help save users about 23% of HVAC energy consumption by adjusting the temperature using flexible scheduling, remote access and geofencing, according to Emerson.

Sensi thermostats also integrate with other mobile device apps and smart home platforms, including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit and SmartThings, according to Emerson.
