CTEHE2013

CTEHE2013 is a professional software tool developed by AICIA-Grupo TERMOTECNIA to verify compliance with the 2013 update of Spain’s Technical Building Code, Energy Saving section (CTE DB-HE). It helps architects, engineers, and energy consultants evaluate building designs against the HE requirements by modeling the envelope, assessing energy demand, and calculating primary energy indicators in line with the DB-HE 2013 methodology. The software streamlines code checks and generates clear, submission-ready reports for regulatory review.

Key features:

• Compliance verification for HE0 (limitation of primary energy use) and HE1 (building envelope performance) per DB-HE 2013
• Building geometry and envelope definition with support for shading and thermal bridges
• Built-in Spanish climate zones and weather data selection
• Editable libraries of construction assemblies and default parameters
• Detailed results for energy demand and primary energy (renewable and non-renewable) indicators
• Automatic, standardized reports suitable for permitting and code submissions
• Applicable to both new construction and major renovations

Use CTEHE2013 to:

• Validate designs early and reduce the risk of noncompliance
• Compare envelope options to meet HE performance targets
• Produce consistent documentation for authorities and project stakeholders

Note: Verification of other DB-HE sections (such as HE2–HE5) may require complementary, section-specific tools.
