2022-12-07
PITTSBURGH (Dec. 6, 2022) – Purdue University is using global software and engineering leader Emerson’s (NYSE: EMR) advanced digital technologies to automate its Nanogrid House, a living lab for energy-efficient home research. Compared to today’s homes and businesses that are powered predominantly by alternating current (AC) power, the Nanogrid House can shift between AC and direct current (DC) power, which increases the ability to use renewable energy and lowers homeowners’ energy costs.
