CEA is a free-to-access tool, but the real value of it appeared after attending the workshop. Jimeno is super experienced in the energy industry and his course structured the complexities of the tool in a step-by-step process highlighting the added value it offers in each stage. He also covered the intricacies and flexibility of the tool , which allowed us to access and modify all the data to create our own assessments. The course is highly technical, but Jimeno breaks it down in an easy-to-follow and engaging manner. I totally recommend the course to any energy experts who are looking to expand their services to district or large-scale level assessments.”

“The insights provided by Jimeno have been invaluable in understanding the CEA's dynamics. Learning to code with the developer version was not only educational but also incredibly fun, we were able to build our own unique tool, empowering us to make a positive impact in the energy sector. I highly recommend this software to anyone passionate about the energy industry and eager to create innovative solutions. Also, thank you for providing this software as a free version, which I believe will enable more people to access it.”

"The CEA course at Superurbana with instructor Jimeno was excellently structured and explained step by step in a clear and understandable way. The group size of five to ten participants allowed for intensive interaction and individual attention. A particularly helpful feature was the example neighborhood that we analyzed together. For those interested, it’s even possible to bring your own neighborhood and work on it in parallel – a great bonus, though not mandatory. Jimeno impresses with his extensive expertise, patient guidance, and even when it comes to in-depth software questions within the developer code, he is ready to help immediately. The venue was pleasant, and the support provided was excellent. For anyone working in urban planning and neighborhood development or interested in dynamic planning, load curves, and simulation-based or digital planning, this course is highly recommended!

The CEA tool is super useful for detailed, easy-to-handle, and user-friendly simulations from building to district scale. The course was helpful in understanding the intricacies of the simulation tool, details of specific models, and possible developments enabling customization. Jimeno is very friendly, committed, and pedagogical, and it was fun learning from him. I will highly recommend this course

I thought the course was useful and well-structured and has given me a solid base when working with the tool. Even though there was a lot of material to cover in relatively short time, it was easy to follow, and the open and lively discussions with Jimeno and the group were the most valuable

I attended the last edition of the Course on City Energy Analyst - "CEA for Professionals in Zürich" organized by Superurbana and held by Jimeno Fonseca in September 2024 and I really found it very useful for my research-work and districts' energy modelling activities. The course was really complete and very helpful to me, it filled all the doubts I had regarding the correct use of CEA, and it also disclosed me further interesting areas of research and application of its key-features. The instructor is a very clever, professional and helpful person and I also met nice and smart colleagues working with CEA as well. Definitely, I strongly suggest attending the course's future editions! "
