Three firms from the Hefei National High-tech Industry Development Zone — ZEROG Aircraft Industry, Anhui Xihe Aviation Technology, and Enrichpower — showed their latest products at the International Advanced Air Mobility Expo 2026 in Shanghai, underscoring the zone’s growing strength in the sector.
ZEROG Aircraft Industry displayed the RX1E-A, a certified electric light sport aircraft for training and patrol, and the ZG-ONE for tourism, shuttles, and emergency response — its certificate application has been accepted. Based in the Hefei National High-tech Industry Development Zone, it develops both fixed-wing and eVTOL aircraft, with several models now in batch delivery. The firm was named a top-10 commercial-deployment solution at the expo.
Anhui Xihe Aviation Technology presented fixed, electric variable, and hydraulic variable propellers for low-altitude use. Its hydraulic variable-pitch prop helped China's first large unmanned transport aircraft fly in 2024, filling a domestic gap. It also unveiled an electric variable-pitch prop for eVTOL, emphasizing light weight and safety.
Enrichpower displayed semi-solid batteries, 200C high-rate cells, and smart BMS-customized batteries for drones and low-altitude craft, meeting demand for energy density, output, temperature stability, and smart management.
The Hefei National High-tech Industry Development Zone has built a comprehensive low-altitude ecosystem producing airframes, propulsion, batteries, and composites. Leveraging local R&D, it has opened test sites for flights, tourism, and urban management, pushing technologies from labs to the market.
