Fundamental Commissioning
Enhanced Commissioning
Building Enclosure Commissioning
Drone Imaging & Thermal Scanning
Retro-Commissioning
Monitoring-Based Commissioning
Measurement and Verification
Indoor Air Quality Testing
Commissioning (Cx) is the process of verifying that designated systems within a newly constructed building achieve the owner’s project performance requirements and/or certification program and regulatory compliance. The scope of commissioning can include mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and life-safety equipment and controls as well as physical components such as the exterior envelope. Cyclone Energy Group provides all levels of Measurement and Verification services, including LEED Fundamental and Enhanced Commissioning.
Energy Modeling
Calibrated Energy Modeling
Computational Fluid Dynamics
Carbon Life-Cycle Modeling
Net-Zero Modeling
Energy Code Modeling & Consulting
Energy Modeling, also known as Building Performance Simulation (BPS), uses sophisticated software to create a virtual model to predict the energy performance of a building. Models can be used to evaluate comparative design scenarios, demonstrate certification program and regulatory compliance, and support research initiatives and consulting studies.
LEED Certifications
WELL Certifications
Green Globes
Phius
Living Futures
Fitwel
National Green Building Standard
We understand that the life-cycle transitions between design, construction, and occupancy can be challenging for all parties involved, and we function seamlessly across those phases as your trusted energy adviser. We provide your design and construction teams with an integrated approach, offering them exceptional analysis and well-targeted recommendations to support the creation and coordination of all critical project documentation. For projects pursuing formal certifications, such as LEED, Green Globes©, and ENERGY STAR®, we support your project team with the guidance necessary to achieve those certifications.
Roadmaps and Master Plans
Carbon Accounting
Decarbonization is a critical strategy in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the built environment. Our team provides comprehensive Carbon Accounting, enabling organizations to quantify and track their emissions across all scopes. We develop Decarbonization Roadmaps and Master Plans to guide building owners, developers, and municipalities in achieving carbon neutrality. These plans integrate energy modeling, system electrification strategies, renewable energy sourcing, and efficiency upgrades to create a long-term, measurable pathway to decarbonization.

Big Picture. Finely Tuned. energyPLAN is the premiere service for continually optimizing building performance. We collect, assess, clarify, and present your energy data in a way that makes sense. We provide year-round technical support and annual comprehensive reporting on completed achievements and energy cost savings. energyPLAN validates your commitment to creating happier occupants, happier owners, and a happier planet.
cyFLY is our DJI Matrice 300 RTK commercially licensed drone. This powerful aircraft can fly high-accuracy routes, both outside and inside your building, taking high-resolution photographs and video. Our team of licensed and trained pilots navigate the drone to support envelope commissioning, building leak detection, building surveys, imaging of roofs and inaccessible areas, project photography and videography, as well as 3D imaging. cyFLY can be used for buildings over 1,000 feet tall.
The Innovation Rodeo is our annual knowledge sharing event held in Chicago every fall. This event was designed to foster collaboration and share valuable insights, innovative ideas and best practices to advance the built environment. The format is a half day of engaging presentations and panel discussions from a variety of guest speakers, each aimed at addressing key challenges and opportunities in the industry. Attendees have the opportunity to learn from experts, exchange ideas and explore various topics that affect those in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) and Commercial Real Estate (CRE) industries.
Make plans to join us for our 10th Anniversary Innovation Rodeo on October 9th. Registration is now open, reserve your spot here.
