Greenwise Goes Electric

At Greenwise, our commitment to environmental responsibility extends beyond the products we use in lawn care and landscaping. We continuously evaluate our operations to identify opportunities to reduce our environmental impact while maintaining the high-quality results our clients expect.

Battery Powered Equipment in Chicagoland

In our Chicagoland service area, we have integrated battery-powered equipment into our operations where appropriate. This transition represents our ongoing effort to reduce emissions and noise while maintaining professional-grade performance for lawn care and landscape maintenance services.

Battery-powered equipment offers several advantages for both our team and the communities we serve. These tools operate more quietly than traditional gas-powered equipment, which can be beneficial in residential neighborhoods, especially during early morning service visits. The reduced noise levels can also improve working conditions for our team members.

Environmental Benefits

Electric equipment powered by batteries eliminates direct emissions at the point of use. This can contribute to improved air quality in the communities where we work, particularly important in urban and suburban areas where multiple service providers may be operating equipment throughout the day.

The environmental benefits of battery-powered equipment align with our broader commitment to sustainable practices, which includes organic lawn care programs, water-conscious design, and the use of native and adapted plants in landscape installations.

Performance and Reliability

Modern battery-powered landscape equipment has advanced significantly in recent years, with improved battery technology providing longer run times and consistent power output. Our team uses professional-grade battery equipment that meets our standards for reliability and performance across various maintenance tasks.

The transition to battery equipment requires careful planning and training to ensure our team can effectively complete all necessary work while managing battery life and charging schedules. We have implemented systems and protocols to support efficient operations with electric equipment.

Ongoing Commitment

Our adoption of battery-powered equipment is part of our continuous improvement process. We regularly evaluate new technologies and practices that can help us operate more sustainably while delivering excellent results for our clients.

This commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility reflects our values as a company that has been providing organic and sustainable landscape services since 2007. We believe that responsible business practices and excellent service quality can go hand in hand.

Service Availability

Battery-powered equipment is currently available in our Chicagoland service area. We continue to evaluate opportunities to expand the use of electric equipment across our service territories as technology advances and equipment availability improves.

Our Milwaukee area operations continue to use a mix of equipment types as we work to balance environmental goals with operational needs and equipment availability in that market.
