Focus on the Two Sessions of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference | Chengdu CFT: Riding the East Wind of the "15th Five-Year Plan"， becoming the "invisible

Policy empowerment for specialized and innovative enterprises. Diligently promoting the construction of an aviation power.

In the vibrant March, the 14th National People's Congress of the People's Republic of China and the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (hereinafter referred to as the "Two Sessions") arrived as scheduled in 2026. This year's event is particularly special - it is a crucial meeting held at the beginning of the "15th Five-Year Plan" to draw up the blueprint for China's economic and social development in the next five years. In the government work report, statements such as "cultivating and expanding emerging industries and future industries" and "building emerging pillar industries such as aerospace" have greatly inspired Chengdu Craft Aviation Equipment Co., Ltd., which specializes in aviation ground energy support. CFT, which has been deeply engaged in the field of aviation ground energy support for 18 years, is now experiencing its own "take-off moment".

Policy breeze: Aerospace is designated as an "emerging pillar industry"

"From strategic emerging industries to emerging pillar industries, this represents an upgrade in the national strategic positioning of the aerospace industry." National Committee member Wang Yu, the chairman of Spring Airlines, said during an interview at this year's两会 (the National Two Sessions)， adding that an important feature of a pillar industry is that its industrial chain is long and has a wide range of impacts.

This year's government work report clearly states that an industrial innovation project will be implemented, encouraging central state-owned enterprises and large enterprises to take the lead in opening up application scenarios, and creating emerging pillar industries such as integrated circuits, aerospace, biomedicine, and low-altitude economy. This deployment indicates that China's industrial development is entering an important stage where rapid transformation of industrial structure and supporting forces is driven by new technological breakthroughs.

For a company like CFT that has long been deeply engaged in the field of aviation ground energy support, this is undoubtedly a major positive development. CFT is not only a high-tech enterprise but also a "specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative" small and medium-sized enterprise and a provincial-level enterprise technology center. Its scientific and technological innovation score is as high as 99 points, making it a "top performer" in the industry.

Expert Interpretation: Specialized, Innovative, and High-Quality Enterprises

How to Support Emerging Key Industries

Professor Chen Dong from the Jiangcheng Industry Development Research Institute of Nanjing University wrote in his article during this year's Two Sessions that specialized, innovative and high-quality enterprises can support the formation of key technical nodes in emerging pillar industries. Enterprises that have long been deeply engaged in specific fields usually need to continuously conduct research and development, improve processes, and optimize products around a specific aspect, thereby accumulating technical and production experience over a long period of time.

This statement accurately describes the development path of CFT. Since its establishment in 2008, CFT has been dedicated to the research, development and manufacturing of aviation ground maintenance and repair equipment, ranging from airport ground power supplies, air conditioning equipment to aircraft tow bars and aviation fuel testing equipment. These "behind-the-scenes heroes" that ensure the safe takeoff and landing of flights are precisely CFT's main business.

National People's Congress representative and vice president of Civil Aviation University of China, Wu Renbiao, emphasized during the two sessions that we should encourage small and medium-sized enterprises to focus on the key supporting links of "specialized， refined， distinctive， and innovative"， and delve deeply into core components and key technologies. CFT has 68 patent information and 13 software copyrights. These technological breakthroughs are solid steps towards China's aviation ground energy support becoming self-controlled and controllable.

Low-Cost Economy: Has Been Included in the Government Work Report for Three Consecutive Years

This year's government work report has explicitly classified the low-altitude economy as an emerging pillar industry. Liu Fang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the former secretary-general of the International Civil Aviation Organization and the former member of the Party Group of the Civil Aviation Administration, pointed out that the low-altitude economy is an important area for civil aviation to cultivate new productive forces, and it has transformed from an "industrial concept" to a "people's livelihood experience".

In 2025, the total number of registered drones in China exceeded 3.28 million, with a cumulative flight time of 45.3 million hours, representing a year-on-year growth of nearly 70%. National People's Congress representative and chief flight instructor of China Civil Aviation Flight University Liu Chuanjian shared his observations during the two sessions： "Applications such as drone inspection， emergency rescue， and logistics delivery have already entered people's lives. Our low-altitude economy is developing in a standardized and orderly direction."

With the rise of the low-altitude economy, aviation ground energy support, as an important component of the supporting system, will also usher in new development opportunities. CFT's business scope covers multiple fields such as aviation equipment research and development, industrial automation control, and information system integration. It is fully capable of seizing the initiative in this industrial upgrading process.

Green Development: Sustainable Aviation Fuels Are Included for the First Time in the Report

This year, "green fuel" was included for the first time in the government work report. The report proposed to cultivate and develop future industries such as future energy, and to foster new growth points like green fuel. Liu Fang, a committee member, pointed out that sustainable aviation fuel is a new type of energy with new productive qualities. Its development is conducive to establishing an independent and self-sufficient green fuel system and enriching China's energy structure.

At present, six enterprises in China have passed the airworthiness certification for the production of sustainable aviation fuel, and have the capacity to produce 1.2 to 1.4 million tons of sustainable aviation fuel annually. This trend has raised new requirements for the supporting capabilities of aviation ground energy security, and also brings new opportunities.

Innovation in Science and Technology: The Leap from "Manufacturing" to "Intelligent Manufacturing"

The government work report emphasizes "strengthening original innovation and tackling key core technologies". Representatives and committee members from the aviation sector all stated that they should take technological innovation as the leading force and new quality productive forces as the core driving force to promote industrial upgrading.

In CFT, innovation has long been deeply embedded in the company's DNA. Up to now, the company has participated in hundreds of bidding projects, which not only demonstrates the market's recognition of the products but also verifies the company's competitiveness in the industry. As an enterprise with 74 trademark information and emphasizing brand building, CFT has taken precautions and has demonstrated a strategic layout for transforming from a single equipment manufacturer to a system integration service provider.

From the perspective of people's livelihood: The development of civil aviation follows the needs of the general public.

"The development of civil aviation follows the needs of the people. Where the people's demands lie, the development direction of civil aviation will point to that direction." This statement made by Liu Chuanjian, a national deputy to the People's Congress, during this year's Two Sessions, reveals the essence of the civil aviation industry.

In 2025, China's civil aviation industry will handle 770 million passenger trips, and the total number of air passengers will exceed 500 million, making China the world's largest country in terms of aviation population. During the 9-day Spring Festival holiday in 2026, the national civil aviation industry achieved a record high of transporting 2.668 million passengers in a single day. Behind these figures lies the urgent demands of the people for air travel and high-quality services.

During the process of realizing this dream, it is impossible without the countless "invisible champions" like Kouvet. With the craftsmanship spirit and innovative wisdom, they are supporting the future of China's aviation industry. Just as Wang Yu, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the chairman of春秋 Airlines Co., Ltd., said: "To make future aircraft fly safer, more economically and more intelligently, and to make people's travel more convenient."

Looking to the future: Unite as one, chase the dream of the blue sky

"High-quality development is the fundamental principle of the new era." For Kuvet, high-quality development does not mean pursuing large-scale or comprehensive goals; instead, it involves delving deeper, exploring more thoroughly, and strengthening in the specific field of aviation ground energy support. With the country positioning aerospace as an emerging pillar industry, and the successful expansion of the domestically produced aircraft C909 to international markets such as Vietnam and Laos, the safe passenger capacity of C919 has exceeded 4 million, and there is a huge potential for the domesticization and substitution of aviation ground equipment.

Spring tides surge, and all things grow. Riding the momentum of the National Two Sessions, Kuvote is gearing up and ready to soar even higher and farther in the vast aviation industry sky.
