What sounds like the future of delivery is history again: Deutsche Post is discontinuing its drone project – further experiments are not planned for the time being.
The Deutsche Post DHL Group has you
Package drone development project «Paketkopter»
rehired.
The project has not been continued for a long time, said a spokesman for the Deutsche Post DHL Group on request. The “Welt am Sonntag” had previously reported on it. A pilot project for sending medicines in Tanzania together with the German Society for International Cooperation (GIZ) and the drone manufacturer Wingcopte will not be continued either.
“We have tested various use cases for the DHL Paketkopter in recent years, in which the drone was mainly used when transport via established infrastructure was difficult or would have taken significantly more time,” said the spokesman. Important insights were gained in the process.
“But we have also pointed out several times that regular operations in the area of delivery by parcel drone are not planned in Germany. There are also no new pilot projects planned, ”it said.
