Welcome to Connectus Utilities
End-to-end management and coordination of High Voltage (HV) substation installations for projects and developments.
Connectus provides end-to-end management and coordination of High Voltage (HV) substation installations compliant, and efficient delivery, from initial design to final installation. Our experienced team oversees the entire process, helping to keep developments on schedule and within budget.
Our service includes full project management for HV substation installations, close coordination with Distribution Network Operators (DNOs), Independent Connection Providers (ICPs), and specialist contractors.
We also ensure each installation is fully integrated with wider utility infrastructure and adheres to all relevant industry standards.
Connectus offers comprehensive HV substation installation and management services, providing expert oversight from initial design and DNO coordination, to installation, testing, and commissioning.
Acting as a single point of contact, we ensure every project is delivered safely, compliantly, and efficiently, while aligning HV infrastructure with wider energy strategies and long-term operational needs.
Working with Connectus for your HV substation project helps simplify what is often a complex and highly regulated process. Connectus acts as a single point of contact, managing every stage of design, coordination, installation, and commissioning, giving you confidence throughout your project.
By partnering with Connectus, you can reduce the risk of delays and technical issues, whilst benefiting from expert project coordination that saves time and resources. Our rigorous standards ensure safety, quality, and reliability at every stage, while efficient planning and procurement help optimise overall project costs. In addition, we future-proof HV infrastructure by integrating renewable-ready and low-carbon infrastructure.
We work in large energy usage sectors where a HV substaion is beneficial:
Connectus delivers reliable HV substation solutions that support high-demand operations, ensuring safety and compliance in industrial environments.
We work closely with developers to design and install HV substations that meet DNO requirements and integrate seamlessly into new developments.
Connectus provides HV substation installations and ongoing management services to meet the power demands of data centres and large commercial facilities.
We support complex infrastructure and utility projects with HV substation installation.
We partner with renewable energy providers and power station operators to deliver HV substations that enable efficient grid connection.
Our HV substation installation and management process follows 5 simple steps:
01
Initial Assessment – We start by conducting a review of your site requirements and relevant DNO specifications.
02
Design & Planning – We will then design and develop an installation plan and schedule, taking into account your budget, timelines and site specifications.
03
Procurement & Coordination – Connectus will engage with the relevant contractors and manage all logistics, creating a streamlined process with minimal hassle.
04
Installation & Testing – We oversee on-site works, ensuring all installations meet regulatory standards, DNO requirements, and industry best practice, followed by thorough testing.
05
Commissioning & Handover – The project is then commissioned and formally handed over, with all final documentation, certifications, and approvals provided for complete peace of mind.
HV substations are usually located close to large developments, industrial sites, or areas of high electrical demand. Their location allows high-voltage electricity to be stepped down efficiently for local distribution.
HV secondary substations play an important role in safely and efficiently transferring electricity from the high-voltage transmission network to lower-voltage distribution networks used by end-users.
Common types of secondary substations include indoor, outdoor (in a GRP or Brick Built housing), with the choice depending on site constraints, environmental conditions, and planning requirements.
In addition to feasibility studies, we offer a number of services to help keep your development on track.
Having a robust energy procurement strategy in place is an important step in ensuring your business is protected in a volatile energy market and means you’re getting the best possible rates.
Consultus is a trusted partner who can provide tailored procurement solutions to help you reach your energy goals.
G99 and G100 refer to UK regulations and standards for connecting electricity-generating systems (like solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, etc.) to the electricity distribution network.
Connectus handles the entire G99 and G100 application process on your behalf saving you time and ensuring compliance from start to finish.
If you’re ready to take the next step in your sustainability journey, our expert Net Zero consulting services can help.
From Scope 3 and ESOS reporting, to implementation of a net zero roadmap tailored to your site requirements and organisation’s goals, we work with you to find the best solutions.
Connectus provides comprehensive Utility Diversion services, managing the relocation or modification of existing utility infrastructure to enable construction or redevelopment projects.
We offer full management of diversion projects, coordination with utility providers and local authorities, and compliance with safety and regulatory standards.
