Haier HVAC Solutions has appointed refrigeration specialist Stephen Gill as its Head of Industry Insights.
Gill, who founded World Refrigeration Day in 2019 and has extensive industry experience, is expected to play a key role in representing Haier at a range of industry forums, events and on professional bodies.
A past President of the Institute of Refrigeration (IOR), he currently serves as Vice President of the ASHRAE UK Chapter, having previously served as its inaugural President, and has served as a board member of ACRIB (The Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Board). He is also involved with several United Nations-led initiatives, including the UN Cool Coalition and UNEP’s Women in Cooling programme.
Haier HVAC Europe CEO Bob Cowlard said: “We are extremely excited to have Stephen Gill come on board and enable him to continue to support the industry. He is an exceptional figure and his reputation as a visionary leader and his deep understanding of the HVAC landscape will be instrumental to our own developments and helping us to give back to the industry.”
Haier describes Gill's appointment as a further expansion of the knowledge base within its European HVAC business. In February of this year, the company welcomed industry expert Graham Hendra as European Heat Pump Development Officer.
