Diversified competitive landscape in unmanned operation and maintenance industry

1.Power inspection is one of the most important application scenarios in the field of unmanned aerial vehicle inspection

Inspection is one of the main functions of drones.Traditional manual inspections can endanger the lives and safety of line patrol workers in dangerous areas,and are affected by geographical and weather conditions as well as workload,resulting in low inspection efficiency and quality.However,industrial drones are gradually being applied in the field of inspection due to their advantages of being not limited by environmental and terrain factors,and having high inspection efficiency.According to statistics and predictions from the Huajing Industry Research Institute,the market size of China's inspection drone industry is expected to reach 18.3 billion yuan in 2023,and is projected to grow to 45.2 billion yuan by 2027.In the field of inspection,power inspection is one of the most important application scenarios.With the continuous development of drone technology and the improvement of power grid intelligence,inspection drones will play a more important role in power inspection.They will be able to more efficiently detect the operating status of power lines,transformers and other equipment,and timely discover potential safety hazards.

2.The competitive landscape of the inspection drone industry presents diversified characteristics

Due to the rich scene and high degree of non-standard in the field of patrol and inspection,the competitive landscape of the inspection drone industry presents a diversified characteristic.Traditional drone manufacturing companies are important forces in competition,such as DJI Innovation and Zongheng Shares.At the same time,some companies specializing in specific industries have also ventured into the field of inspection drones.For example,in the power industry,some companies specialize in developing and producing drones specifically for power inspection needs.In addition,emerging technology startups are also active participants in the competitive landscape of inspection drones.In addition to DJI Innovation and Zongheng Shares,many enterprises such as Kebit,Yiwu,Yijiahe,Guandian Defense,Qianxun Location,Fuya Intelligence,Yunsheng Intelligence,Daotong Intelligence,and Nanjing Qianliyan have also made layouts in this field.
