Making Steps Toward a More Sustainable Race

At the Škoda Tour de Luxembourg, we are committed to continuously reducing the environmental footprint of our event. Step by step, we are implementing concrete actions to make the race more sustainable while setting a positive example in professional cycling

Sustainable Mobility

Our organisation’s vehicle fleet is progressively transitioning to electric mobility.
Each year we increase the number of electric and hybrid cars, reducing CO₂ emissions and promoting clean transport.
Together with our partners, we provide charging solutions along the race route to ensure seamless e-mobility.

Eco-Responsibility Along the Race Route

Litter zones are installed every 30–40 km to allow riders to safely dispose of bottles, food wrappers, and other waste.
These zones are systematically cleaned once the peloton has passed, ensuring no trace is left behind.
Outside of these zones, it is strictly prohibited for riders to discard waste.

At Start and Finish Areas

Selective waste sorting is available at every start and finish venue.
Volunteers and staff are equipped with reusable bottles, avoiding the use of single-use plastics.
Catering focuses on local, seasonal products — with a preference for organic and fair-trade options wherever possible.
Continuous efforts are made to reduce packaging and single-use plastics.

Additional Initiatives

Promotion of public transport, cycling, and shared mobility for fans and visitors to reach the race.
Development of digital tools (accreditations, communication, roadbooks) to cut down on paper consumption.
Collaboration with local communes and sustainability partners to measure and reduce the race’s carbon footprint.
Awareness campaigns to engage teams, spectators, and partners in building a greener cycling culture.

Commitment to Sustainable Cycling - UCI

The Škoda Tour de Luxembourg has committed to the UCI Climate Action Charter as it seeks to make greater reductions to cycling’s impact on the environment.

Climate change is the greatest threat to the essential elements of life for people worldwide and our sport.

Through this charter, we recognise the crucial steps we must take to make our sport’s rapid and deep emissions reductions possible by 2030.

We therefore join the UCI in solidarity to build a sustainable cycling of tomorrow together.
