Prosperity in the Low-Altitude Economy
The low-altitude economy is expected to be identified as a strategic emerging industry cluster, alongside new energy, intelligent manufacturing, and aerospace technologies. It represents an integrated system combining aviation, digital, and service economies—covering logistics, inspection, emergency rescue, and infrastructure maintenance.
China’s comprehensive policy framework now encourages the development of low-altitude airspace management, urban flight infrastructure, and industrial application pilots. This policy alignment provides unprecedented opportunities for enterprises innovating in aerial operations. The sector’s contribution is expected to surpass 1 trillion RMB by 2030, with strong local government support for UAV infrastructure, pilot zones, and digital governance systems.
Under this momentum, the aerial cleaning industry—a traditionally labor-intensive sector—stands to benefit directly. The adoption of intelligent drone systems reflects the national emphasis on safety, automation, and green efficiency, bridging policy intent with real-world implementation.
低空经济的繁荣图景
低空经济被明确列为与新能源、智能制造、航空航天技术并列的战略性新兴产业集群。它代表着一个融合航空、数字与服务产业的综合体系，涵盖物流运输、巡检作业、应急救援及基础设施维护等多元场景。
目前，中国已形成较为完善的政策体系，积极推动低空空域管理、城市低空飞行基础设施建设及产业化应用示范。这一政策协同为航空作业创新企业提供了前所未有的发展机遇。预计到2030年，该产业的经济规模有望突破1万亿元人民币，各地政府也正加快布局无人机基础设施、试点区域及数字化治理体系，为产业高质量发展夯实基础。
在这一发展势头下，传统的高空清洗行业——一个长期依赖人工作业的领域——正迎来技术革新的契机。智能无人机系统的应用，充分体现了国家对安全性、自动化与绿色高效的重视，实现了从政策导向到实际落地的有效衔接。
Practical Implications: Efficiency, Safety, and Sustainability
The practical value of cleaning drones extends far beyond convenience—it transforms how cities maintain their built environments.
- Safety First:
Traditional high-altitude cleaning, reliant on manual labor, has long been associated with significant safety risks. By removing the need for workers to operate at height, the D15R minimizes exposure to accidents, ensuring compliance with stricter safety regulations and labor standards.
- Efficiency and Precision:
Drones can complete cleaning tasks at 10–20 times the speed of manual operations, ensuring consistent quality even on complex surfaces. The integrated radar and RTK system enable centimeter-level positioning, ensuring precision cleaning with minimal resource waste.
- Environmental and Economic Gains:
By integrating smart water control, energy-efficient motors, and long-term re-usability, the drone reduces operational costs and energy consumption. Its use of eco-friendly cleaning agents supports the national transition toward a low-carbon and green service economy.
- Urban Applications:
Beyond building facades, the drone can service solar farms, wind turbines, traffic signage, and glass bridges, making it suitable for both industrial and municipal operations. Its adaptability aligns perfectly with the country’s goals for digitally managed, intelligent urban maintenance.
Through these combined advantages, cleaning drones help cities achieve cleaner skylines while advancing sustainable urban governance.
实践意义：效率、安全与可持续性
清洗无人机的价值远不止于便利性，它正在重塑城市建筑维护的方式。

凭借这些综合优势，清洗无人机不仅让城市天际线更加洁净，也助力实现高效、安全、可持续的城市治理新格局。
Economic and Market Outlook
The economic environment for drone-based services is rapidly maturing. According to recent policy guidance, local governments across China are establishing low-altitude economy demonstration zones in cities such as Shenzhen, Chengdu, and Changsha. These zones serve as incubators for aerial innovation, offering incentives for R&D, infrastructure construction, and application pilots in logistics, emergency response, and building maintenance.
The cleaning drone market is expected to expand alongside the national drive to modernize the service industry and public facilities. Industry estimates project that the domestic market for intelligent cleaning systems—including drones—will exceed 50 billion yuan by 2030, supported by steady demand from real estate, renewable energy, and public works sectors.
Moreover, as China’s urbanization rate surpasses 70%, the need for efficient building maintenance continues to grow. Large commercial and residential complexes, photovoltaic installations, and infrastructure assets increasingly require safe, automated cleaning solutions. This creates a strong, policy-backed demand base for technologies like the D15R.
Internationally, the Chinese UAV industry is also moving toward export-oriented development, aligning with the national strategy to expand high-standard openness and develop new forms of trade and service exports. This opens opportunities for the cleaning drone to participate in overseas projects and global supply chains, demonstrating China’s capabilities in smart, sustainable innovation.
经济与市场前景
以无人机为基础的服务产业正在逐步走向成熟。根据最新政策导向，全国多地正建设低空经济示范区，深圳、成都、长沙等城市率先开展试点。这些示范区作为低空产业创新的孵化平台，为科研创新、基础设施建设及物流、应急救援、建筑维护等应用场景提供了政策激励与实践空间。
在国家推动服务业与公共设施现代化的背景下，清洗无人机市场有望稳步扩张。行业预测显示，到2030年，包含无人机在内的智能清洁系统国内市场规模预计将超过500亿元人民币。这一增长将主要受房地产、可再生能源及市政工程等领域的持续需求支撑。
与此同时，随着中国城市化率超过70%，高效建筑维护的需求不断上升。大型商业综合体、住宅社区、光伏装置及基础设施资产对安全、自动化的清洁方案需求日益增长，为D15R等智能无人机技术提供了稳固的市场基础。
在国际层面，中国无人机产业正逐步迈向出口导向型发展方向，与国家战略中提出的“扩大高标准开放、培育新型贸易与服务出口形态”相契合。这一趋势为清洗无人机参与海外项目和全球供应链建设创造了新的机遇，也反映了中国在智能化与可持续创新领域的综合实力提升。
