Swedish heat pump company names new UK chief

Philip Ord, who has extensive commercial experience in the heating and cooling industry, has been appointed chief executive for Qvantum's UK operations.

Philip Ord is the new chief executive at Quantum UK

There is an increasing need for modern, connected, and modular low-carbon heating and cooling systems in the UK and throughout Europe. Mr Ord will, with his experience in marketing and sales at Mitsubishi Electric, lead the way to enable Qvantum to be a secure energy partner for new developments and retrofitting projects. 

“Qvantum provides innovative heat-pump systems that go beyond traditional offerings. I am certain that Philip will help us fulfill our vision to empower many people to live a life free from fossil fuel dependence,” says Jesper Jarnhäll, head of commercial at Qvantum.

Qvantum provides not only traditional heat pumps but makes the heat pumps a part of a bigger system. A heat pump from Qvantum new modular platform will in the future be able to help balance the local electricity grid. 

“Being part of a company as forward-leaning as Qvantum makes me incredibly excited, stated Ord. “To use the heat pumps as thermal batteries as Qvantum does—both individually and in groups—is, to me, something revolutionary. Who does not want to be part of such a journey?”
