China’s commitment to fostering new growth drivers has led to the establishment of a new department dedicated to developing the country’s burgeoning low-altitude economy. Announced by the nation’s top economic planner, this initiative marks a significant step in expanding economic activities within the lower airspace.
The low-altitude economy refers to economic activities and industries centered around manned and unmanned aerial vehicles operating in airspace usually within 1,000 meters above the ground. This sector encompasses various applications of aircraft and drones at low altitudes, offering potential for innovation and economic expansion.
By setting up this dedicated department, China aims to streamline the growth of the low-altitude economy, encouraging advancements in technology and industry practices. This move highlights the country’s strategic focus on embracing emerging sectors to drive economic diversification and sustained development.
