Switching to electric equipment saves $30,000 each year

2021

In the spring of 2013 we converted 18 pieces of our Jacobsen golf course maintenance equipment from gasoline powered to fully electric power. Making this change has provided a golf course that is quieter for the wildlife that live here and for the golfers who play.

We now save 9000 gallons of fuel and about $30,000 dollars per year, with zero carbon emissions and reduced health risks for our staff. This project continues to-date with lithium-ion battery powered equipment being purchased for other maintenance tasks.
