Lake of the Woods Golf Course takes steps to reduce emissions

Mahomet, IL – Lake of the Woods Golf Course has replaced their fossil-fuel-powered fleet with a five-year  lease of 60 Club Car Tempo Lithium-ION series golf carts from Battery Specialists + Golf Cars in Champaign.  The Club Car Tempo is an electric cart that features auto-breaking, flip windshields and dual USB ports. A two week test run with these carts conducted in 2021 yielded favorable reviews and a greater customer appreciation  of the clean and quiet electric carts. 

The course replaced their current fleet for the following reasons:  

• Current fleet is past its normal useful life, 

• Elimination of the fossil-fuel-powered golf cart fleet, 

• Greatly improved battery technology and life, 

• Simplified fleet maintenance and swifter battery charging. 

To meet the Climate Commitment adopted by the Champaign County Forest Preserve District (CCFPD) Board  of Commissioners in April 2022, the District is working to mitigate our impact on the climate through rigorous  action to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions generated by CCFPD operations.  

“We aim to reduce emissions in our preserves each year and reach near-zero net greenhouse gas emissions by  2050. Replacing our fleet of aging gas-powered golf carts with battery-powered ones will help us achieve that  goal,” said Lorrie Pearson, Executive Director.
