Li Xingwen, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhaoqing Municipal Party Committee and Executive Vice Mayor of the Municipal Government, said in his speech at the conference

"As an important node city in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and an important part of the Guangzhou Metropolitan Area, Zhaoqing has obvious advantages in developing low-altitude economy. Zhaoqing has four major advantages: location advantage, airspace advantage, application scenario advantage and standardized industry development advantage."

Seize the new outlet and seize the new track,

Zhaoqing has formulated the "Zhaoqing City Action Plan for Promoting Low-altitude Economic Development (2024-2026)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan") to lead the development of Zhaoqing's low-altitude economy in the next three years.

It focuses on the layout of the entire industrial chain and application traction, takes drones as the development focus, accelerates the construction of a development pattern of low-altitude manufacturing and service integration, application and industry mutual promotion, and deeply explores the huge potential of low-altitude economy as a new engine of economic growth.

The Action Plan focuses on implementing eight measures to promote Zhaoqing's low-altitude economy, including building a new pattern of coordinated development of low-altitude flight, strengthening the informatization of low-altitude economy, promoting the construction of low-altitude test service platforms, increasing the efforts to attract and cultivate low-altitude economic industrial chains, improving the technical research and development capabilities of low-altitude industries, building low-altitude economic industrial parks, cultivating low-altitude application scenarios, and striving to create a low-altitude economic pilot demonstration.

The low-altitude test service base built by Zhaoqing is adjacent to the Xijiang River and can provide a test environment for logistics and transportation of drones. 

The author noticed that Zhaoqing has begun to build a low-altitude test service platform and a low-altitude economic industrial park to provide software and hardware guarantees for the development of the low-altitude economy. All departments in Zhaoqing are actively expanding the application scenarios and fields of low-altitude aircraft to promote integration into the drone logistics node network in the Greater Bay Area. The investment promotion department of Zhaoqing City has carried out investment promotion activities for the entire industrial chain of low-altitude economy to strengthen, supplement and extend the chain.

At the meeting,

Zhaoqing Municipal People's Government and China Yuanwang Communication Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement, and a number of industrial chain projects involving drone whole machine manufacturing, parts production, low-altitude testing, training and other services were signed and landed in Zhaoqing.

Two major parks carry the future of the industry

In order to welcome the vast number of low-altitude enterprises and work together to enter the trillion-dollar market,

Zhaoqing has built an industrial carrying space with "two parks as the core and multi-point layout development".

In the municipal management area of ​​Guangdong Province (Zhaoqing) Large Industrial Cluster Area (hereinafter referred to as: Zhaoqing Large Production Area), a low-altitude economic and technological industrial park of more than 1,000 acres will be built; more than 200 acres of mature land will be reserved in Huodao Town, Gaoyao District, to create a new type of air-side low-altitude logistics demonstration park. The "two parks" will provide a carrier for drone whole machine manufacturing and core parts, key materials production, and logistics and transportation operations.

The conference released the "Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (Zhaoqing) Low-altitude Economic and Technological Industrial Park".

Liang Guangting, Deputy Secretary-General of the Zhaoqing Municipal People's Government, Executive Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Planning and Construction Command of Guangdong Province (Zhaoqing) Large Industrial Clusters, Deputy Secretary of the Party Working Committee and Director of the Management Committee of the Guangdong-Guangxi Cooperation Special Experimental Zone (Zhaoqing), interpreted it.

Liang Guangting introduced

Zhaoqing Large Production Zone is guided by high-tech, high-end, high efficiency, and concentrated clusters. Focusing on the overall goal of building a 10,000-acre 100 billion platform, an innovation development demonstration zone, and a high-quality development pilot zone, it accelerates the construction of a "1+1+2" industrial system with "intelligent networked new energy vehicle industry" as the leading factor, "new generation of electronic information industry" as the focus, and "high-end equipment manufacturing industry" and "advanced materials" as the characteristics.

Guangdong Province (Zhaoqing) Large Industrial Clusters Municipal Management Start-up Zone. 

Zhaoqing Low-altitude Economic Science and Technology Industrial Park will rely on the good resource endowment and development foundation of Zhaoqing Large Production Zone to accurately lay out the two core sections of the pilot start-up construction zone and the future innovation cluster zone. Leading the development with the pilot construction area, taking the lead in laying out functional areas such as front-end R&D and pilot bases, accelerating the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into real productivity; cultivating industrial advantages with future innovation clusters, focusing on drones, improving the manufacturing capabilities of low-altitude industries, and cultivating local leading industries.

In terms of planning, the industrial park coordinates the concentrated development of industrial space and creates a "one center and three areas" spatial structure, namely "one public service center" + "R&D innovation, cultural display, and production and manufacturing" three major areas. By improving the full-link R&D and manufacturing service platform and building a one-stop innovation service system, it promotes the full-chain industrial agglomeration of low-altitude economy, cultivates low-altitude application scenarios, enhances industrial technology R&D capabilities, and builds a high-quality industrial ecology.

"This park will outline a beautiful blueprint for the low-altitude economy in the large production area and build a new competitive advantage for Zhaoqing's future industries."

Liang Guangting said.

More than that, Zhaoqing also supports various regions to build characteristic low-altitude industrial parks in a modular way in areas with good airspace conditions and strong industrial foundations, and jointly provide all-round and professional low-altitude economic industry supporting services, revitalize and utilize existing industrial space, and accelerate the formation of an industrial ecological cluster integrating R&D, manufacturing, testing, testing, and application.

Three platforms provide good low-altitude services

For this conference, Zhaoqing invited many entrepreneurs, experts and scholars from industries such as industry and information technology, communications, aviation, artificial intelligence, and drones.

Everyone praised Zhaoqing's determination and foresight in the field of low-altitude economy.

Li Jinji, former deputy director of the Air Force Command Air Traffic Control Department and senior engineer, said

"The low-altitude economic industry is mainly divided into four aspects: industrial manufacturing, technical support, service guarantee and scenario application. I am very happy to see that Zhaoqing attaches importance to the construction of the low-altitude economic service end in its planning."

Li Jinji explained

"Without service guarantee, there is no application, and you can't see the drones made by various companies. After the drone is produced, it needs to be fully tested and obtain various certificates before it can be truly applied in various scenarios."

Zhaoqing has terrain features such as continuous mountains, forests,

large river basins, lake scenic spots,

densely populated areas,

not only has a wealth of application scenarios,

but also an ideal environment for drone flights

-there are few low-altitude users,

and the non-densely populated area below the airspace is large,

suitable for the construction of low-altitude test service bases and logistics test bases.

Zhaoqing has vast land, clean airspace, and diverse terrain, making it a golden choice for the development of low-altitude economy. 

China Yuanwang Communication Co., Ltd. saw this advantage and chose Zhaoqing as the starting point of its layout in South China. Through visits, they chose a piece of land with "time, place and people" - clean airspace, sparsely populated on the ground, far from the airport, good air visibility, various terrain environments, and good radio communication environment. The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (Zhaoqing) Low-altitude Test Service Base was built to provide low-altitude manufacturing, service, and communication companies with a series of test activities such as related flight tests and scenario tests.

In addition to hardware support,

Yuanwang Company also co-built a low-altitude information service center with the Zhaoqing Municipal People's Government

to provide air traffic public services such as flight plan processing, surveillance, aviation intelligence,

aviation meteorology, flight support, emergency rescue, etc. for general aviation flight activities.

Zhaoqing has vast waters and clean airspace, which is suitable for building a drone test service base. 

Relevant person in charge of Zhaoqing City said

"This is the 'one center and two bases' that we focus on building, creating a low-altitude flight platform with 'three-in-one' R&D testing + scenario application + government supervision, to help achieve the safe, orderly and healthy development of the low-altitude economy."

These policies and measures have impressed the participating merchants.

Wu Yachen, vice president of Ehang Intelligent Group, a world-leading intelligent autonomous aircraft technology company, said:

"Zhaoqing's rich application scenarios and efforts to develop the low-altitude economy have given us more possibilities for cooperation."
