An Emerson unit has won contracts totaling $17 million from Westinghouse Electric Co. to provide control technology at four new Westinghouse nuclear reactors in China.
Emerson Process Management's system will be installed at the Sanmen Nuclear Power Plant in Zhejiang Province and at the Haiyang Nuclear Power Plant in Shandong Province, the company said Wednesday. Each plant has two 1,000-megawatt reactors currently under construction, with more units planned. The first Sanmen unit is scheduled to come online in 2013; the first Haiyang unit is expected to begin commercial operation one year later.
On Tuesday, Emerson said it won a contract to design six Internet data centers for Datacraft in India.
St. Louis-based Emerson (NYSE: EMR), led by Chairman and CEO David Farr, reported sales in fiscal 2010 of $21 billion.
