USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 33 granted patents across 21 technology areas, active 2015–2024. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G05B (CONTROL OR REGULATING SYSTEMS IN GENERAL; FUNCTIONAL ELEMENTS OF SUCH SYSTEMS; MONITORING OR TESTING ARRANGEMENTS FOR SUCH SYSTEMS OR ELEMENTS).
The verdict
Emerson holds 33 US patents across 21 technology areas, rank #9,492 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Emerson Process Management Power & Water Solutions, Inc. has been granted 33 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Emerson Process Management Power & Water Solutions, Inc. at rank #9,492 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 27.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G05B (CONTROL OR REGULATING SYSTEMS IN GENERAL; FUNCTIONAL ELEMENTS OF SUCH SYSTEMS; MONITORING OR TESTING ARRANGEMENTS FOR SUCH SYSTEMS OR ELEMENTS). As a US Corporation, Emerson Process Management Power & Water Solutions, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Emerson sits between Eaton Electrical IP Gmbh & Co. KG (33 patents, rank #9,488) and Edico Genome Corporation (33 patents, rank #9,496) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 50.0/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 12 grants, compared with 21 in the 2015–2019 window, a -43% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Emerson Process Management Power & Water Solutions, Inc.'s 27.2 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Emerson Process Management Power & Water Solutions, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Emerson's 33 grants land it in the top 14% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
