Global demand for energy-efficient buildings
helped boost Johnson Controls's net profit.
The AP (4/17, Fredrix) reports, "Global demand
for energy efficient buildings helped boost
second-quarter profit 27 percent at Johnson
Controls Inc." The maker of building and auto
systems said that "building efficiency sales
climbed 11 percent to 3.3 billion due to growing
demand for such systems in nonresidential
buildings." These "systems improve energy
efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions."
Also the increase in "power solutions sales,
which includes batteries," was mostly "due to
higher prices because of increased lead costs."
And "sales in automotive interiors increased
two percent to 4.6 billion," despite the fact
that "the U.S. sector continued to slump." From
SME Executive report 4/18/08
