Claus Egede Cornelius, program director at Roskilde Technical School, Vilvorde speaks about how electric mini excavators are being used to give Danish landscaping and construction students the skills they will need on future construction sites. Denmark has had legally binding targets to reduce carbon emissions since 2020. The country aims to reduce greenhouse gases by 70% by 2030 and to be climate-neutral by 2050. Claus Egede Cornelius goes on to explain how the school’s primary goal is to be a frontrunner in sustainability using no-emissions equipment. The school has two New Holland Construction electric mini excavators which students use for small landscaping projects and construction. Together with producing zero tailpipe emissions, they make very little noise and can be used inside because they can fit through doorways. Customers also praise their responsive controls and how easy they are to charge alongside their impressive battery life. **Read the full story at:** [![CNH Logo](/sites/default/files/2024-01/CNH_WHITE_RGB-AREA_Black-Background.png)](/profiles/cnh) ### More from CNH ###### [A New Holland Tractor That Transformed a Community: How Mechanization Generated Hope, Growth, and Self-Sufficiency in Uganda](/news/new-holland-tractor-transformed-community-how-mechanization-generated-hope-growth-and-self) Apr 2, 2026 4:00 PM ET ###### [Case IH and Senar of Rio Grande do Sul Close Partnership for Rural Professional Training Courses in Brazil](/news/case-ih-and-senar-rio-grande-do-sul-close-partnership-rural-professional-training-courses) Mar 19, 2026 4:00 PM ET ###### [New Electric Mini Excavator and Mini Track Loader From New Holland Construction Expand Jobsite Possibilities](/news/new-electric-mini-excavator-and-mini-track-loader-new-holland-construction-expand-jobsite) Mar 11, 2026 10:26 AM ET ###### [World Engineering Day: CNH Is Responding to Evolving Needs in Specialty Farming](/news/world-engineering-day-cnh-responding-evolving-needs-specialty-farming) Mar 4, 2026 4:00 PM ET ###### [CASE Comes to CONEXPO 2026 With Big Lineup of New Machines and Technology So Crews Can Be Ready for Anything](/news/case-comes-conexpo-2026-big-lineup-new-machines-and-technology-so-crews-can-be-ready-anything) Mar 3, 2026 4:00 PM ET ###### [CNH in Top 1% of S&P Global’s 2026 Sustainability Yearbook](/news/cnh-top-1-sp-globals-2026-sustainability-yearbook) Feb 19, 2026 4:00 PM ET ###### [CNH Capital, Shepherd Compello, BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions and Swiss Re Unveil Parametric Service To Protect European Agriculture Against Extreme Weather Challenges](/news/cnh-capital-shepherd-compello-bnp-paribas-leasing-solutions-and-swiss-re-unveil-parametric) Feb 10, 2026 4:00 PM ET ###### [New Strategic Agreement Between Alma Mater and CNH for Research, Innovation, and Sustainability](/news/new-strategic-agreement-between-alma-mater-and-cnh-research-innovation-and-sustainability) Feb 5, 2026 4:00 PM ET
