Rider Levett Bucknall’s Utilities & Energy team is one of the UK’s leading independent multi-disciplinary utilities consultancies, supporting clients in the successful planning, procurement, delivery and operation of critical utility infrastructure across some of the country’s most complex development and infrastructure programmes.

Our team works across the full project lifecycle, providing specialist expertise in electricity, water, wastewater, gas, telecommunications, distributed heat network, emerging utilities and infrastructure for hyperscale data centres, advanced manufacturing, logistics, renewable energy, commercial, residential and nationally significant infrastructure projects.

What sets us apart is our genuinely integrated approach. Rather than operating as individual disciplines, our professionals work collaboratively across three complementary service pillars to provide clients with seamless support throughout every stage of a project.

Commercial Management – Providing strategic commercial advice, procurement, contract administration, cost management, change management, commercial assurance and financial governance from early project development through to final account.

Technical & Regulatory Advisory – Delivering specialist utility engineering, network strategy, regulatory guidance, statutory approvals, utility procurement, connections strategy and technical assurance to de-risk projects from inception.

Project & Programme Management – Leading the planning, governance and delivery of complex utility infrastructure programmes, providing project management, PMO, programme controls, stakeholder management and client-side delivery oversight through construction, commissioning and energisation.

This collaborative approach allows us to solve complex challenges quickly, share knowledge across disciplines and provide resilient support throughout every stage of project delivery.

As our team continues to grow, we remain committed to fostering an inclusive, supportive and collaborative culture where individuals are encouraged to learn from one another, develop new skills and work across disciplines.
