電動垂直起降(eVTOL)和先進空中運輸(AAM)市場是一個新興的航空領域,其核心是安靜的電動飛機,專為在低空空域運輸人員和貨物而設計。 AAM的應用範圍廣泛,包括都市區空中計程車、城際和區域連接、貨物運輸和物流以及醫療和緊急救援服務,預計將提供一種新的交通方式,與現有的公路、鐵路和傳統航空網路形成互補。經過一段時間的密集試驗,該領域正圍繞著幾家值得信賴的研發公司進行整合,這些公司正在推進飛機型號合格證的認證流程,整個行業也正從示範階段邁向早期商業運營階段。

這個概念基於多種技術的融合,包括高密度電池、電動馬達和分散式推進系統、輕質複合材料結構,以及日益精確的自主技術、航空電子設備和軟體。然而,要大規模實現這一目標,基礎設施和監管以及飛機本身都至關重要。垂直起降場、充電設施和電網連接、空中交通管理和空域整合以及公眾接受度——所有這些因素都將決定這項服務的擴展速度。在營運方面,初期部署將專注於短途、受天氣影響的接駁交通途徑。隨著成本的降低和自主技術的成熟,預計將建立更廣泛的網路。

政府支持是決定性的力量,日本堪稱先驅典範。在日本近期獲準的「國家成長戰略」中,電動垂直起降飛行器(eVTOL)被定位為選定的戰略性航空航太領域的關鍵技術之一,政府將協調公共投資,用於研發、示範設施建設和供應鏈發展,同時優先發展日本在小型輕型飛機領域的優勢,用於城市交通和旅遊航線。該策略也強調認證專業知識和國際標準化,顯示日本不僅致力於遵守規則,更致力於主導全球規則的發展。世界各地也出現了類似的趨勢。中國已將低空經濟發展納入修訂後的「民用航空法」,並簡化了空域准入流程。美國正在推進動力升降機的綜合試驗計畫和相關法規。歐洲已製定專門的認證規範。海灣國家也在支持旗艦計畫的推出。這些努力共同降低了投資風險,加快了認證進程,並促進了基礎設施建設。

因此,市場正處於轉折點。隨著財力雄厚的飛機研發公司數量不斷增加、供應商和基礎設施生態系統日趨成熟,以及前所未有的政策支持,先進空中運輸正從概念階段邁向實用化。這一轉變的速度和地理範圍將在很大程度上取決於認證進展、基礎設施建設以及政府持續投入之間的相互作用。

「2027-2037年全球電動垂直起降飛行器和先進空中空中運輸市場報告」對電動垂直起降飛行器(eVTOL)和先進空中運輸(AAM)領域從認證階段到早期商業運營的整個市場和技術進行了全面評估。該報告考察了整個生態系統,涵蓋了從飛機架構和設計、應用案例和航線經濟性、總擁有成本、資金籌措和經營模式、供應商基礎、法規和檢驗,到大規模運營所需的物理和數位基礎設施等各個方面。

第26章 參考文獻

The electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) and advanced air mobility (AAM) market represents an emerging aviation category built around quiet, electrically powered aircraft designed to move people and cargo through low-altitude airspace. Spanning urban air taxis, intercity and regional connections, cargo and logistics, and medical and emergency services, AAM promises a new layer of transport that complements existing road, rail and conventional aviation networks. After a period of intense experimentation, the sector has consolidated around a smaller group of credible developers whose aircraft are progressing through type certification, moving the industry from demonstration toward early commercial operation.

The proposition rests on a convergence of enabling technologies: high-density batteries, electric motors and distributed propulsion, lightweight composite structures, and increasingly capable autonomy, avionics and software. Realising it at scale, however, depends as much on infrastructure and institutions as on aircraft - vertiports, charging and grid connections, air-traffic management and airspace integration, and public acceptance all shape how quickly service can expand. Operationally, early deployments are converging on short, fair-weather shuttle missions that replace or augment helicopter and premium ground transport, with broader networks expected to follow as costs fall and autonomy matures.

Government support has become a decisive force, and Japan offers a leading example. Its recently approved national growth strategy designates eVTOLs a key technology within a select group of strategic aviation and space fields, backing them with coordinated public investment in research, demonstration facilities and supply-chain development, and prioritising domestic strengths in compact, lightweight aircraft for urban-transit and tourism routes. The strategy also emphasises certification expertise and international standardisation, signalling an intent to shape global rules rather than merely follow them. Comparable momentum is evident worldwide: China has embedded low-altitude economic development in revised civil-aviation legislation and streamlined airspace access; the United States is advancing integration pilot programmes and powered-lift rules; Europe has established dedicated certification specifications; and Gulf states are underwriting flagship launches. Together these interventions de-risk investment, accelerate certification and catalyse infrastructure.

The market therefore sits at an inflection point. A narrowing field of well-capitalised aircraft developers, a maturing supplier and infrastructure ecosystem, and unprecedented policy backing are aligning to move advanced air mobility from ambition toward operational reality. The pace and geography of that transition will be determined largely by the interplay of certification progress, infrastructure readiness and sustained government commitment.

The Global eVTOL and Advanced Air Mobility Market 2027-2037 is a comprehensive market and technology assessment of the electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) and advanced air mobility (AAM) sector as it transitions from certification to early commercial operation. The report examines the full ecosystem - aircraft architectures and design, use cases and route economics, total cost of ownership, funding and business models, the supplier base, regulation and certification, and the physical and digital infrastructure required to operate at scale.

It provides an in-depth analysis of the enabling technology stack, including batteries, charging standards and energy infrastructure, fuel-cell and hybrid powertrains, electric motors and propulsion, composite materials and lightweighting, and autonomy, avionics and software. Dedicated chapters address vertiport and ground infrastructure, air-traffic management and airspace integration, public perception and social licence, and convergence with adjacent markets. Regional market analysis and detailed forecasts run through 2037, complemented by extensive company profiles across the value chain.

The report reflects the sector's recent consolidation and the emergence of a small group of credible front-runners, alongside intensifying government support, evolving certification pathways, and the strategic contest to build bankable infrastructure. It is intended for OEMs, suppliers, investors, operators, infrastructure developers, utilities, regulators and policymakers seeking a rigorous, current view of where the market is heading.
