We did our in house Level 1 Walk Through in 2007 and we got the Energy Label. After that we did in house Level1 Walk Through every year and in put data to Energy Star but we did not apply the labal for last three years. Our Energy Intensity from 76 down to 63 last year. Now, USGBC have the comment for EAp1 credit: 1) provide a supplement EUI analysis that establishes a target EUI for the building and quantifies the potential cost savings that might be realized by enchancing energy efficiency to achieve the target index, as directed by the level Analysis.
My question is the target index EUI same as National Average Source EUI in Energy Star. Can I just submit the 2007 Statement of Energy Performance to them. Any advise is appreciat.

The target EUI is arbitrarily selected by the energy auditor. It must be chosen to be higher than the current score.
Performance period must be at least 12 months and up to 24 months for EAp1. You can not submit the 2007 SEP if you are pursuing LEED EBOM certification at this time. Also, LEED EBOM requires a minimum score of 69.
Hope this helps.
