Andorra Launches Drone Study with ACA and CCIS for Mobility Strategy

Andorra's government, the Automobile Club of Andorra (ACA), and the Andorran Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Services (CCIS) have launched a 12-month collaboration to explore uncrewed aircraft applications.

The State Secretariat for Energy Transition, Transport and Mobility partnered with the ACA and CCIS to produce a study examining the economic, technological, logistical, and regulatory prospects of drones. The work will help shape a national strategy to support growth in fields like logistics, emergency response, and light transport, where some models can carry small loads.

State Secretary David Forné said the deal lays the groundwork for a thorough review of drones and light air mobility opportunities. He highlighted their ability to spark innovation, create fresh economic opportunities, and deliver sustainable options suited to Andorra's context.

CCIS Director General Sol Rossell described the project as a model public-private partnership vital for progress in promising fields. It will benchmark viability against European standards and international benchmarks, while outlining ways to develop a domestic light air mobility network.

Results will go to public bodies, companies, and community groups to spread insights. The initiative supports Andorra's push for economic variety, tech progress, and environmental goals.

The State Secretariat will manage institutional links, the ACA will supply technical skills, mobility insights, and global ties, and the CCIS will handle business assessments and private-sector outreach. A joint oversight committee from the three organizations will track advancement and hit targets.
