The Standard Energy Efficiency Data (SEED)™ Platform is a web-based application that helps organizations easily manage data on the energy performance of large groups of buildings. Users can combine data from multiple sources, clean and validate it, and share the information with others. The software application provides an easy, flexible, and cost-effective method to improve the quality and availability of data to help demonstrate the economic and environmental benefits of energy efficiency, to implement programs, and to target investment activity.

The SEED application is written in Python/Django, with AngularJS, Bootstrap, and other javascript libraries used for the front-end. The back-end database is required to be PostgreSQL.

Work on SEED-Platform is managed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy. The software was developed by Building Energy.
