China News Service, Beijing, April 3 (Liang Xiaoyan, Wang Qingkai) CCID Consulting recently released the "China Low-altitude Economic Development Research Report (2024)" (hereinafter referred to as the report), which shows that by 2026, the scale of my country's low-altitude economy is expected to exceed one trillion yuan, reaching 1.06446 billion yuan.

  The report stated that the low-altitude economy is a comprehensive economic form generated by new productivity, which mainly includes four links: low-altitude infrastructure, low-altitude aircraft manufacturing, low-altitude operation services, and low-altitude flight support. Low-altitude factorization, factor sceneization, and scene economics are the essence of the current development of low-altitude economy.

  According to estimates, the scale of my country's low-altitude economy will reach 505.95 billion yuan in 2023, with a growth rate of 33.8%. In terms of cutting-edge tracks, the scale of my country's eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft) industry in 2023 will be close to 1 billion yuan, and the scale of the civilian drone industry will be close to 120 billion yuan. With the increasing number of low-altitude flight activities, the effects of investment in low-altitude infrastructure will gradually appear, and my country's low-altitude economy will maintain a rapid growth trend in the next few years.

  In response to the current development status of the low-altitude economy, Yang Ling, head of CCID Consulting's Intelligent Equipment Industry Research Center, suggested that we can focus on three main channels, namely focusing on "new low-altitude equipment", "new low-altitude scenarios" and "new infrastructure"; strengthening the four Pay equal attention to both, that is, pay equal attention to economic statistical monitoring and effectiveness evaluation, pay equal attention to benchmarking scenario demonstrations and large-scale application promotion, pay equal attention to the agglomeration of industrial characteristics and regional collaboration, and pay equal attention to optimizing policy guarantees and strengthening safety supervision.
