Core Viewpoint - The low-altitude economy is set to enter a rapid development phase in 2025, becoming a key focus for many provinces in China, with various applications such as urban air transport, logistics, and agricultural operations emerging as new growth areas [1][2]. Policy Breakthrough - Urban air transport is recognized as a crucial component of future smart cities and low-altitude economy, requiring systematic breakthroughs in technology, policy, airspace allocation, and inter-departmental collaboration [2]. - In 2023, "low-altitude economy" was included in Shenzhen's government work report, and measures were introduced to support high-quality development in this sector [2]. - The first special regulation for the low-altitude sector, effective from February 1, 2024, aims to establish a collaborative mechanism for industry development and low-altitude flight management [2]. Infrastructure Acceleration - Shenzhen is accelerating the construction of low-altitude infrastructure to support innovative applications in the low-altitude economy [5]. - A comprehensive plan for high-quality low-altitude infrastructure construction from 2024 to 2026 has been issued, including the establishment of multiple testing zones and industrial parks [5]. - The Longgang District's low-altitude intelligent integration testing base has been operational, providing facilities for drone testing and training [6]. Logistics Advancement - Low-altitude logistics is a key area for Shenzhen's air transport system, with 250 drone logistics routes opened in 2024, achieving over 776,000 drone deliveries, a 27% increase year-on-year [8]. - The first "air-ground collaborative" smart logistics operation center was launched in February 2024, enhancing efficiency in logistics operations [8]. - Companies like Meituan have opened nearly 50 drone routes in Shenzhen, completing over 400,000 orders, showcasing the potential for improved urban delivery services [9]. Scene Expansion - The commercial exploration of urban air transport is accelerating, with 28,000 helicopter flights recorded in 2024, a 21% increase [12]. - Shenzhen has initiated China's first air-rail intermodal project, integrating helicopter services with high-speed rail for enhanced urban mobility [12]. - Various scenic flights and tourism-related air services have been established, with significant participation from local residents and tourists [13]. Future Development - The development of eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft is gaining traction, with testing and operational centers being established to facilitate future commercial use [14][15]. - The market for helicopter commuting is expected to grow, with eVTOL potentially becoming a common mode of transport in the next few years [15]. - The government is playing a proactive role in fostering the low-altitude economy by enhancing regulatory frameworks and resource allocation [16].
