Tom Mackintosh

Research Engineer

I am currently working in the areas of residential-scale combined heat and power systems, and air-source cold climate heat pumps. I conduct experimental work related to this technology, with the goals of increasing their efficiency, reducing their GHG footprints, and making these technology available for use by Canadians.
