As part of the agreement, EHang will establish its national headquarters for low-altitude emergency rescue equipment in Fangshan District, focusing on emergency rescue operation business. The Fangshan district government will provide support by coordinating industrial funds for this initiative and related projects.
The collaboration will involve the development of a comprehensive emergency fire-fighting industrial park in Fangshan district, encompassing R&D, testing, manufacturing, sales, maintenance, and training facilities. Key infrastructure will be put in place to support EHang’s emergency rescue products, including an innovation incubation center, a manufacturing base with advanced production lines, a smart command-and-control center, and a multi-scenario testing and training facility.
Furthermore, both parties aim to explore various low-altitude emergency response scenarios in the district, such as urban firefighting, forest fire suppression, industrial rescue, disaster relief, and inspection tasks. The partnership will also extend to other low-altitude applications like logistics transportation, cultural tourism sightseeing, and passenger transportation. To facilitate these initiatives, a full-scenario simulation center will be established to train operation and maintenance personnel for diverse emergency and rescue missions using different aircraft across various scenarios.
