We are the NET ZERO catalyst
MEUC is a dedicated corporate membership organisation supporting
major energy and water using companies in industry, commerce and the public sector;

The voice of utility users
MEUC was set up in the latter part of the 1980s to bring together like-minded professionals at a time privatisation was taking hold in the UK’s energy market with a view to making sure that ‘Major Energy Users’ were informed of policy developments and purchasing opportunities as the market matured.
What Our Members Say
-
The MEUC emails us information, they are at the
end of a phone call to give us advice on legislation
and we find the whole membership scheme very
valuable to our organisation.Karen McMahon, Environment Manager – Reach Plc -
Thank you for organising such a brilliant event (the Autumn
Roadshow). It was fantastic for me to get into the event and
network alongside some of the other large energy users as well
as get an update on the state of renewable generation options
as well as understand the challenges and opportunities which
are available across the utilities landscape.Keith Lockhart, Category Manager – Utilities – Heathrow Airport Ltd -
The main benefit of being an MEUC member was the high level
contact they have with a supplier, but over the years it’s been
more in terms of the engagement with the policy side of things.
We’ve been able to input to Government policy and then also
training days and industry intelligence.David Mead, Associate Director – Jones Lang LaSalle -
The world of energy procurement is a complex one, membership
of the MEUC has proved invaluable. Knowledge and guidance
received from both the team and fellow members has given me
a deeper understanding of the markets and the confidence to
discuss strategies with the rest of the business.Graham Harrison. Purchasing Manager – Heron Foods
