updates: China saw a 48% surge in newly-registered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the first six months of the year, totaling over 1.87 million. The push for the 'low-altitude economy' aims to foster high-value jobs, innovation in science and technology, and inject momentum into the overall economy. The Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) plans to coordinate the upgrade of the traditional aviation industry with innovative developments in the UAV industry. Transport minister Li Xiaopeng also plans to upgrade China's logistics and transport network by encouraging the replacement of old vehicles with new models or methods, including UAVs. The low-altitude economy refers to industries developed from civil-manned and unmanned aerial vehicles operating below 1,000 meters above ground, such as agriculture, delivery services, and emergency response. The number of licensed companies operating drones has fallen from 19,000 to 14,000, while the number of people registered with an operating license has increased to 225,000. The CAAC plans to strengthen certification standards for drones, develop low-altitude communication, navigation, and surveillance capabilities, and implement new safety regulations and airport usage. China has introduced national regulations requiring registration of drones, with restrictions on photography and filming of military or secretive facilities. Local governments are investing heavily in the low-altitude economy, offering subsidies and establishing funds to support its development.

Version 0.15 (2024-06-02 11:53:59.250000)
updates: Shanxi province in China is embracing the use of electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles (eVTOL) and drone deliveries to boost its tourism industry and contribute to the 'low altitude economy'. The province plans to invest in these technologies, with the aim of contributing between 3 trillion yuan and 5 trillion yuan (US$414 billion-US$690 billion) to the national economy by 2025. Taiyuan Xishan Ecological Tourism Investment Construction, owned by the municipal government of Taiyuan, has already placed an order to buy 50 fully autonomous EH216-S drones from eVTOL maker EHang. The province also plans to subsidize the establishment of support services for low-altitude flights and airport expansion. However, concerns remain about the safety, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of these technologies.
