Storyline


Low-altitude economy is booming in Guangzhou, the provincial capital of Guangdong in south China, as traditional and innovative enterprises race to grow in the area.

Guangzhou is the city with the most industrial categories in south China, claiming 35 out of the 41 major industrial categories. Many traditional enterprises in Guangzhou are accelerating their layout in the low-altitude economy, while many innovative enterprises have also chosen to settle there, leveraging the mature manufacturing foundation and complete industrial chain.

From the diversified exploration of application scenarios to the intensive deployment of infrastructure, Guangzhou is making full-chain effort to create a test field and a cluster for the development of low-altitude economy.

Giving full play to the advantages of a population of tens of millions and a vibrant economic foundation, Guangzhou has established a competitive low-altitude economy landscape in various application scenarios, including urban governance, air traffic, emergency rescue and low-altitude tourism.

Guangzhou EHang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., an autonomous aerial vehicle technology platform company, has developed the world's first electric unpiloted passenger-carrying aerial vehicle to obtain the type certificate, production license and airworthiness certificate.

With eight axes and sixteen propellers, the vehicle is able to achieve vertical take-off and landing, catering to the demand for short and medium-range air transportation in urban low-altitude environments. It can be widely used in various scenarios like passenger transport, tourism and medical emergency rescue.

Based in Guangzhou, enterprises like EHang have not only leaped from research and development to mass production, but are also accelerating technological iteration by leveraging the city's rich application scenarios.

Guangdong Aerospace Research Academy (GARA) has independently developed the first 4.5-meter wind tunnel in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, which is not only the largest production wind tunnel in south China but also fills the gap in the region's capability for validating the aerodynamic performance of low-altitude aircraft.

"Our wind tunnel is specially designed for private enterprises. To put it bluntly, it makes wind tunnel test affordable for them, thus making it a distinctive service tailored for [enterprises in] the Greater Bay Area," said Shang Zuming, director of GARA's low-altitude aircraft wind tunnel testing platform.

As the first city in China to release municipal guidelines for low-altitude infrastructure construction, Guangzhou now has 10 registered general airports and 38 immediately usable take-off and landing facilities. A total of 55 5G-Advanced integrated sensing base stations have been put into use on a trial basis, creating a comprehensive support network.

Data show that Guangzhou has registered 603,000 new business entities, a year-on-year increase of 11.6 percent, ranking top among major cities in the country in both increment and growth rate. Among the 343,300 new jobs created, the growth of skilled professionals in the fields such as low-altitude economy and intelligent manufacturing is particularly noteworthy.
