Energy ID is a database of benchmarked software. Here we are looking at popular open source software, CLI tooling, and also programming language constructs and primitives and benchmark their Energy, CO2 and the Green Software Foundation’s SCI metric via our Green Metrics Tool
Energy ID lists software by so called Tasks.
The projects aim is to get a quick idea about the “typical use case of a software” and how much this would accrue in terms of energy / carbon cost.
If you want to further compare a project, monitor a project over time or even do optimizations and performance engineering do look into the capabilities of the Green Metrics Tool
Important: The absolute numbers shown here are not to be taken as ground truth of the actual carbon cost of the software in the wild. These are the cost that happen on our testing machines and also reflect the cost of the scenario chosen by us. A different use-case might incur a vastly different carbon cost.
For measurement on different machines, which are more similar to what you are running in your setup, visit our Cluster documentation and re-run the measurement on a machine more apt for your comparison.

Credit / Funding
The Energy-ID Database frontend and parts of the content was funded by the Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU) under the number DBU Project 39703/01
After the creation of the Energy-ID Database also contributions from volunteers, own work without funding and other prior resarch work have been added to the dabase and go beyond the scope of the research project.
We are super grateful for this funding and are blessed to have been granted the opportunity to create this data repository for the greater software community!
