The Heat Pump Association (HPA) has announced the appointment of its next Vice Chair, Chris Taylor-Hamlin, Senior Environment Research Manager at Daikin, who will officially enter post in September 2025.
Commenting on his appointment, Chris Taylor-Hamlin said: “It’s an honour to have been voted in by the members as Vice Chair of the HPA. The HPA is one of the most proactive associations I have had the pleasure of working with. There remains a lot of work to do via the HPA to aid governments, the regions and the country as a whole to reach the necessary decarbonisation targets. I intend to repay the trust placed in me by my fellow HPA members by impartially representing the whole heat pump sector.”
Commenting on the appointment, Charlotte Lee, Chief Executive of the HPA, said: “We are delighted to welcome Chris as our next Vice Chair and look forward to him beginning his tenure in September. His deep industry knowledge, Association experience and commitment to advancing collaboration between the members makes him an ideal fit for this role. As we continue to work closely with government and industry stakeholders, Chris will be instrumental in driving forward the heat pump agenda and supporting the association’s work at a busy time.”
Craig Dolan will remain Chair of the HPA until September, after which Mark Wilkins, current Vice Chair, will become the Chair, with Chris Taylor-Hamlin taking over as Vice Chair.
