EHang Launches Intelligent Aerial Firefighting Solution - Seite 2

EHang 216Fs are expected to be deployed in urban fire stations to assist in firefighting within a 5km radius.  EHang’s autopilot and centralized management technologies enable a fleet of EHang 216Fs to be remotely dispatched for first response even before the firefighters arrive.  This significantly shortens response time and can reduce casualties.

High-rise fires are a growing problem around the world.  The height of fire rescue ladders and the reach of fire nozzles are usually less than 50 meters, and their operations are often limited to one side of a building.  Furthermore, because high-rise buildings are often located in urban centers, traffic can significantly lengthen response times.  The intelligent aerial firefighting solution by EHang provides a better alternative for dealing with high-rise building fires.  With the fully-equipped EHang 216F AAVs and the command-and-control system, this solution offers comprehensive services including investigation, firefighting, rescue and emergency management.

Accelerating urbanization and building density are increasing fire hazards and creating more difficulties in firefighting.  According to a survey by China Fire Magazine, 233,000 fires were reported nationwide in 2019, among which 6,974 cases happened in high-rise buildings with a year-on-year growth of 10.6%.
