Komatsu Co., Ltd（Hereinafter referred to as“Komatsu”）Jointly developed with Honda Motor Co., Ltd.ElectricMiniature Excavator“PC05E-1”，Strive to launch in Japan's domestic market as early as possible in 2023。The prototype of the aircraft in the 13th“International Smart Grid Exhibition”（ March 15, 2023～Held in Tokyo, Japan on March 17）It was displayed on the Internet.。

▲Electric micro-excavation「PC05E-1」Prototype

The machine is an electric mini-Excavator successfully realized in Japan in March 2022.“PC01E-1”The second model developed after the launch of the market，The research and development of this machine will further expand Komatsu's electric Excavator product line.。It is mainly used for small-scale civil engineering、Construction work， Gas 、Electrical、Indoor piping engineering and other construction sitesPC01E-1 same，This research and developmentPCThe power source of 05 is also used.Honda Mobile Power Pack e(Replaceable battery)AndElectric Power Unit（egX），So that that electrification is realize。

The electric mini excavator has the function ofAnd that noise is greatly reduce、Heat emissionThe characteristics of，At the same time ，“Zero exhaust emissions”More environmentally friendly，Work comfortably in both indoor and outdoor environments。Because the battery is replaceable.，When the remaining battery capacity is insufficient，You can continue to work by replacing the battery，No need to spend time on charging。In addition，The battery is arranged in the middle of the central part of the Vehicle body under the hand seat.，It achieves the same stability and compactness as fuel Vehicles.。Again，The electric motor ensures the power output in the full speed range.，It can also ensure strong digging force in low speed operation which fuel Vehicles are not good at.。In terms of maintenance，Because there is no engine.，It is no longer necessary to clean filters such as air filters.，No longer need to check oil、Refuel，The time-consuming and laborious daily inspection and maintenance work will be greatly reduced.。

Komatsu is devoting itself to the research and development and market launch of various electric construction machinery.，2023 will be positioned as the first year of the market launch of electric construction machinery.，To promote the formation of electric construction machinery market，Will actively seekPC05E-Early market launch and popularization of 1。

Komatsu Approves Medium-Term Business Plan“DANTOTSU Value–Together, to ‘The Next’ for sustainable growth”The value of the advantages presented in (DANTOTSU Value，That is, through revenue improvement andESGThe virtuous circle of problem solving realizes the creation of customer value.)，New steps towards the realization of the future scene，Strive to pass on a sustainable future to the next generation。
