contents In this paper, an efficient implementation of the renormalized internally-contracted multreference coupled cluster with singles and doubles (RIC-MRCCSD) into the ORCA quantum chemistry program suite is reported. To this end, Evangelista's Wick&d equation generator was combined with ORCA's native AGE code generator in order to implement the many-body residuals required for the RIC-MRCCSD method. Substantial efficiency gains are realized by deriving a spin-free formulation instead of the previously reported spin-orbital version developed by some of us. Since AGE produces parallelized code, the resulting implementation can directly be run in parallel with substantial speedups when executed on multiple cores. In terms of runtime, the cost of RIC-MRCCSD is shown to be between single-reference RHF-CCSD and UHF-CCSD, even when active space spaces as large as CAS(14,14) are considered. This achievement is largely due to the fact that no reduced density matrices (RDM) or cumulants higher than three-body enter the formalism. The scalability of the method to large systems is furthermore demonstrated by computing the ground-state of a vitamin B12 model comprised of an active space of CAS(12, 12) and 809 orbitals. In terms of accuracy, RIC-MRCCSD is carefully compared to second- and approximate fourth-order $n$-electron valence state perturbation theories (NEVPT2, NEVPT4(SD)), to the multireference zeroth-order coupled-electron pair approximation (CEPA(0)), as well as to the IC-MRCCSD from Kohn. In contrast to RIC-MRCCSD, the IC-MRCCSD equations are entirely derived by AGE using the conventional projection-based approach, which, however, leads to much higher algorithmic complexity than the former as well as the necessity to calculate up to the five-body RDMs. Remaining challenges such as the variation of the results with the flow, a free parameter that enters the RIC-MRCCSD theory, are discussed.
