Please, I would like to know where I can find the Energy Use Intensity (EUI) factors for LEED projects, according to their climate zone (per ASHRAE) and their activity.

We are working on a small retail store 18,000 sqft and we are considering pursuing the prescriptive compliance path AEDG (option 2) to meet EAp2.
