Dear Raul,

To recover the "molecular mechanical" energy (Eelec, Evdw, Egeom) you can
certainly use NAMD2 with CHARMM. I would suggest though to have not a
single frame included into the calculations, but have an MD run for
long enough, so that the standard errors on the energy components will be
small. For the references on MM-PBSA, see David Case 2003-2004, Kollman
1999-2001.

Hope that this helps.

Have a great day,

Taras
