Philip Ord named UK CEO at Qvantum

Swedish heat pump company Qvantum has named Philip Ord as CEO of its UK operations at Leicester-based Qvantum Energy Technology.

Ord has extensive experience in the heating and cooling sector through his sales and marketing roles in more than two decades with Mitsubishi Electric.

Qvantum says there is an increasing need for modern, connected, and modular low-carbon heating and cooling systems in the UK and throughout Europe. It hopes Ord will help it to be a secure energy partner for new developments and retrofitting projects. 

Head of Commercial Jesper Jarnhäll said: "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.”

Ord said:  “Being part of a company as forward-leaning as Qvantum makes me incredibly excited. 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?”
