Hi,

I would like to know what are the units of energies (i.e. Binding energy) of docked complexes of HADDOCK.

**Example:**

" REMARK Symmetry energy: 0  
REMARK ===============================================================  
REMARK Desolvation energy: 38.7798  
REMARK Internal energy free molecules: 12174  
REMARK Internal energy complex: -42435  
REMARK Binding energy: -55193.2  
REMARK ==============================================================="

Check the following thread: [Why HADDOCK Score doesn't have unit?](https://ask.bioexcel.eu/t/why-haddock-score-doesnt-have-unit/215)

I would not trust any reported energies to reflect real binding affinities.

Did you get an email about the error? It would help to know more about the error than only this line.  
If you did not get an email, send us your userid and the run name concerned by the error.
