Commissioning (Cx) and verification are requirements to qualify for LEED certification.

LEED commissioning (Cx) requirements focus on ensuring energy and water-consuming systems operate as intended. The basic systems that require commissioning under LEED include Electrical, Mechanical, Plumbing, and Renewable Energy (A). These systems are crucial for a building's energy efficiency and operational performance. Structural and non-energy-consuming systems, such as structural or audiovisual elements, are typically outside the commissioning scope. Proper commissioning of these systems helps ensure sustainable building operations aligned with the owner’s project requirements.
