National indicators point that 85% of Mexico?s energy production come from fossil fuels. Quintana Roo is the state with the most significant increase on energy consumption with almost 20% from 2010 to 2017. This project carries out a holistic energy analysis approach in three case studies in typical dwellings built with average materials and construction systems under tropical climate conditions. Two validation levels were performed, one with an historical weather data file, and the second one with a costumed weather file corresponding to February 2019. The obtained values of mean bias error on an hourly-based analysis in interior conditions varied with the following ranges: level 1, from 1.57% to 2.11%; in level 2, from 1.17% to 1.74%. On the other hand, it was also found that the first level of simulation predicted the electricity consumption slightly closer to actual values reported for February 2019, with values ranging from 7.56% to 16.63%. However, further analysis with more detailed input data and monitoring of daily consumption is recommended in order to reduce the variation ranges
