There could be other errors, but procedurally the script should be like this:

/POST1
ESEL,S,ENAME,,185

*DIM,potential_energy,ARRAY,55 ! Number of steps

*DO, step, 1, 55, 1
    set,,,,,,,step         ! store results for set step
    *GET,energy,SENE,step,ITEM
    potential_energy(step) = energy

   *CFOPEN,my_file,TXT,C:\Users\MD\Desktop\energy\
  *VWRITE, potential_energy(1:55),”%10.2F”
  *CFCLOSE

*ENDDO

I don't recognize the format of the two commands below.  Are they based on the *GET command documentation?

*GET, max_index, potential_energy, MAX
*GET, my_energy, ARRAY, potential_energy(max_index)
