Jacobsen will become one of the first manufacturers to offer a fully-electric golf course mowing service solution with the release of the Eclipse 2 ELiTE walking greens mower, ELiTE lithium outfront and AR1 ELiTE articulated rotary mower joining the Eclipse 360 ELiTE and SLF1 ELiTE models. According to Jacobsen, its fairway and rough machines use Samsung Lithium SDI technology, allowing turf professionals to cut all day on greens, fairways and roughs.

Extending the benefits of lithium to the entire course enables golf organizations to reduce their carbon emissions further, according to the company. With noise and vibration greatly decreased, a day of cutting fairways or rough will have less stress on the operator, bringing increased comfort and productivity.

To enhance the efficiency and productivity of these machines, Jacobsen added PACE Technology, an equipment management and geofencing system that is a screenless web-based solution. Superintendents can access PACE from any device and use real-time tracking and task management to maximize the effectiveness of their operation. Users can track and measure the power output per hole of the machines to maximize their performance and develop a picture of how they work on the course.

Jacobsen, Cushman and PACE have collaborated with 26 courses across three continents in 2023, including Sage Valley Golf Club in Graniteville, S.C., Loch Lomond Golf Club in Scotland and Peninsula Kingswood in Australia.
