Doing Cold Smarter Policy Commission Opens Under Lord Teverson

On 16 March 2015 the University of Birmingham announced the Doing Cold Smarter Policy Commission, the seventh in its series of Birmingham Policy Commissions. Chaired by Lord Teverson and led by the Birmingham Energy Institute, the commission set out to look at cold as a neglected part of energy and environmental policy, with its final report due in October 2015.

Gavin, then Energy Development Manager at the University, acted as Policy Commission Manager and co-ordinated production of the report, which was launched later that year.
