Henrik Juhl Hansen, managing director of Vaillant Group UK & Ireland, has been appointed as the new president of the Energy and Utilities Alliance.
The Energy and Utilities Alliance (EUA) has announced the appointment of Henrik Juhl Hansen as its new president. Hansen currently serves as the managing director of Vaillant Group UK & Ireland, bringing significant heating industry experience to the trade organisation's leadership.
The EUA represents gas appliance manufacturers, heating equipment distributors, and utility supply networks across the UK. Hansen's appointment puts a major boiler and heat pump manufacturer executive at the forefront of the alliance's trade policy and lobbying efforts during a period of transition in heating technology.
This leadership change does not immediately alter the retail price of Vaillant boilers or heat pumps at merchants such as City Plumbing, Screwfix, or Toolstation. However, having a major manufacturer head the trade body means heating engineers and plumbers can expect continued strong industry representation on key policy matters. Installers should keep an eye on future EUA guidance regarding heat pump adoption, hydrogen-ready appliances, and upcoming efficiency standards, which ultimately influence the types of heating systems customers request and the training required to fit them.
