In recent years, Huai'an City has turned its low-altitude airspace into a core regional competitive advantage. Leveraging application scenarios as a medium, industries as the backbone, and policy support as wings, the city has created a thriving low-altitude economy.

Huai'an has expanded scenarios to unlock the value of its low-altitude airspace. Focusing on people's welfare and development needs, the city has promoted the full coverage of low-altitude economy application scenarios—spanning port material distribution, urban curtain wall cleaning, ecological patrol, emergency rescue, and farmland plant protection. These diversified scenarios not only benefit citizens but also open up broader market space.

Huai'an has consolidated chains to build solid support. Through talent cultivation, enterprise clustering, and industrial park capacity building, the city has formed a virtuous cycle of "training–employment–industry empowerment." It has nurtured multiple backbone enterprises to tackle critical technologies and leveraged multiple industrial parks to build related industrial clusters, fostering a coordinated development ecosystem.

Huai'an has enhanced policy support to solidify the foundation for long-term development. In 2025, the city introduced a special implementation plan, which clarifies the complete framework of "infrastructure + industrial system + application scenarios + innovation-driven development + safety supervision" along with short-term and long-term goals. By coordinating the construction of hardware facilities, establishing cross-departmental regulatory mechanisms, and building supply-demand matching platforms, the city safeguards industrial development and transforms policy support into a driving force for technological innovation and service upgrading.
