With the support of JSC “NC “KAZAKH INVEST,” Yesil Technology Company will establish the production of industrial unmanned drones in Kazakhstan. The project involves the construction of an industrial and research area of 50,000 square meters. The zone will include a workshop for the production of batteries, a research center for innovative technologies, full-cycle machine storage, a test site for aircraft, and more. It is expected that the launch of production will create 500 jobs. The total investment will amount to approximately $12 million. The products will be supplied to local markets as well as to markets in Central Asian countries, DKnews.kz reports.
Yesil Technology, a subsidiary of the Chinese Shaanxi Kaizhuo Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., was established in March 2024. As a leader in the field of smart solutions for drones in low-altitude industries, the company focuses on developing communication links for unmanned aerial vehicles and producing ready-made devices. The company aims to deeply integrate advanced UAV technologies into agricultural monitoring, environmental protection, the protection of special facilities, emergency rescue operations, counteracting UAVs, and other areas of application.
According to the World Federation of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, the global low-altitude economy market reached $318.64 billion in 2024, and by 2050, this figure is expected to exceed $8.8 trillion. In China, for example, the market volume of the low-altitude economy in 2023 was $68.65 billion, and in 2024, it is projected to reach $79 billion, with an average annual growth rate of 16.03% over the next five years. Behind these impressive figures is the widespread and deep integration of unmanned aerial vehicles across various fields.
“The low-altitude economy, as a new area in the economy, is changing the global industrial structure due to its unique advantages. Using various types of low-altitude aircraft, it is effectively applied in many sectors, opening new avenues for economic development. From agriculture and forest protection to logistics, from geodesy to emergency rescue operations, the range of applications for the low-altitude economy is constantly expanding, and its potential is limitless” Yerzhan Yelekeyev, Chairman of the KAZAKH INVEST Management Board
“Yesil Technology actively attracts outstanding scientists and researchers from around the world, focusing on solving key problems such as the limitation of unmanned aerial vehicles' flight range, the accuracy of intelligent obstacle avoidance, and the precision and stability of navigation, which hinder industry development. Today, our products already have the ability to operate stably in the most challenging conditions and accurately perform tasks, providing users with calm and reliable aviation services. Yesil Technology is not only focused on product renewal and improvement but also takes on an important mission to train local personnel in unmanned aerial vehicle technology. We will work closely with scientific organizations and companies to develop training programs so that technologies are strengthened and personnel can improve their skills” Yongning Hui, Head of Yesil Technology
