Electric mowers make the cut

Ryder Cup 2018

France

The Ryder Cup Green Drive aims to lighten the environmental footprint and promote nature and sustainability at golf’s greatest team event. Out on the course, home to over 350 species of biodiversity as identified by the National Natural History Museum of France, the international greenkeeping team cut the greens with twenty fully electric Jacobsen mowers. In addition, the new Toro irrigation system helped cut overall water use by 40% in the previous three years and Le Golf National’s drive on recycling now means over 340 tonnes of waste is reused and recycled every year.
