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
