About Macvere

An independent voice in UK utilities.

Macvere was founded in 2024 to fix a gap in the market. Developers and landowners could buy utility connections, designs and build contracts anywhere. What they could not easily buy was independent advice: someone on their side of the table who understands how utility companies think, what the rules allow and where the cost and programme risk really sits.

The Macvere standard

That is what Macvere does. Specialist utility work with a clear conclusion, in plain English, and nothing left to be discovered later. We do not sell connections and we do not build networks, so the advice is shaped only by what is right for the job.

Two standalone businesses

Macvere Utility Consultants advises housebuilders, developers and landowners on utilities and new connections: due diligence, point of connection, utility strategy, diversions and procurement across electricity, gas, water, wastewater and telecoms.

Macvere Land Rights works for network operators, utility companies, connection providers and their solicitors: HMLR compliant legal plans, substation leases, easements, wayleaves and complete land rights transactions for electricity, water and gas networks.

Different clients, different work, the same standard. Each business is run on its own terms, with its own team and its own client relationships.

How we work

We start with the conclusion, then explain the reasoning. Every report identifies risk, states assumptions, highlights unknowns and says what to do next. We keep it in plain English. If something is going to cost you money or programme, we say so directly.

Quality

Macvere Utility Consultants Ltd holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for the provision of expert utility consultancy and engineering services. Every deliverable goes through document control and review before it reaches a client.

Beyond the day job

We are passionate about STEM and invest in the next generation of utility professionals, supporting educational initiatives, CPD training for the industry and mentoring opportunities.
