If I live in a flat, as most people in London do, a drone can’t deliver a package to my door,” Carolina Pinto, thematic analyst at GlobalData, tells <em>Retail Insight Network</em>.</p> <p>While conglomerates like Amazon undoubtedly have the considerable capital required to purchase and maintain swarms of drones, it will likely cost more than investing in delivery drivers – even if investigations show retail giants <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/mar/11/amazon-delivery-drivers-bathroom-breaks-unions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">underpaying and overworking drivers</a>.</p> <p>“Drones are restricted to operating outdoors, and can only deliver one package compared to delivery trucks and bikes that can deliver many at a time,” says Pinto.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="wp-image-95442" src="https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-1024x576.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" srcset="https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-770x433.jpg 770w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-430x241.jpg 430w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-940x528.jpg 940w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-675x379.jpg 675w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk-320x180.jpg 320w, https://www.retail-insight-network.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/18/2024/08/Amazon-pharma-delivery-drones-talk.jpg 1440w" alt="" width="1024" height="576" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">John Love, vice president of Amazon Pharmacy, gives a talk about healthcare delivery by drone at a company event in Sumner, Washington, 18 October, 2023. Credit: Jason Redmond / Getty. </figcaption></figure> <p>On the public investment side, delivery drones seem far from a pressing area for government funding, already stretched in the UK according to recently elected Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cldyeykzp33o" target="_blank" rel="noopener">piercing assessment</a> of the country’s finances.</p> <p>Instances of last resort show why drone delivery services could be more accepted for emergency services applications, such as using thermal imaging to detect people in hard-to-reach areas like rubble and tunnels during a rescue operation. <a href="https://dronesaferegister.org.uk/blog/drones-for-emergency-services#:~:text=Two%2Dthirds%20of%20the%20UK's,eye%20view%20of%20a%20fire." target="_blank" rel="noopener">Two-thirds</a> of the UK’s fire services are reportedly already using drones.</p> <p>Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Health Secretary Wes Streeting have pledged to cut NHS waiting times with <a href="https://labour.org.uk/change/build-an-nhs-fit-for-the-future/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">40,000 more appointments every week</a>, a promise that makes significant investment in drones to deliver medical supplies less of a priority.</p> <p>Circumventing the need for individual inspectors to check wind turbines, bridges, railways and roads is also useful, but hardly revolutionary without solving any identified infrastructural issues.</p> <h2 id="h-a-risk-of-property-damage-or-physical-harm" class="wp-block-heading">A risk of “property damage or physical harm”?</h2> <p>The second question is will – and should – drone delivery services pass regulatory assessments?</p> <p>The CAA appears in favour of implementation. In February, the UK regulator set out a proposal for drones to be used for critical medical deliveries, despite previously <a href="https://www.caa.co.uk/newsroom/news/uk-civil-aviation-authority-calls-on-drone-pilots-to-fly-responsibly-and-not-disrupt-emergency-helicopters/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">warning drone operators</a> not to disrupt emergency helicopters.</p> <p>“The primary objective of these drone trials is to gather essential safety data and insights that will help the UK Civil Aviation Authority safely integrate drones flying beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) into UK airspace,” the CAA spokesperson tells <em>Retail Insight Network</em>.</p> <p>The selected projects largely involve autonomous drones, but their capacity to manoeuvre around buildings, birds and people remains unclear.</p> <p>Both for deliveries and healthcare, there lies value in reaching remote parts of the UK with poor transport links. But with <a href="https://www.ibisworld.com/uk/bed/urban-population/44231/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">84.4%</a> of the UK population located in urban areas, such drones pose “a safety risk to highly populated areas”, according to Pinto.</p> <p>“If drone delivery does become cheaper than current delivery methods, other challenges will emerge,” Pinto concludes. “Are drones intelligent enough to autonomously navigate in a sea of hundreds of drones? How do you mitigate the risk of a drone causing property damage or physical harm? These are all questions regulators need to consider.”</p> <div id="slot-three"></div> <div id="Sgpollsputhere"></div></p><div id="slot-three"></div></p>  <div class="grid-container"> <section
