Xinte Energy Xinjiang Polysilicon Plant →
CNXinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region · manufacturing
100% of Xinte polysilicon capacity located in Xinjiang. ~120,000 MT/yr capacity. Subject to UFLPA Withhold Release Orders; US Customs blocks imports. Powered primarily by coal-fired electricity from Xinjiang's grid — enabling low-cost production. The Xinjiang location is both the economic advantage (cheap energy, cheap labor) and the legal barrier to Western market access.
Xinte Energy — Xinjiang Polysilicon Production Base →
CNXinjiang · processing
Primary polysilicon production facility for Xinte Energy (XINTE:HK) in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. ~300,000 MT/year capacity, making Xinte the 4th largest polysilicon producer globally. Like Daqo and GCL's Xinjiang operations, Xinte polysilicon is subject to UFLPA rebuttable presumption in US trade. Xinte also has operations in Inner Mongolia. The combination of Xinjiang producers (GCL, Daqo, Xinte) accounts for the majority of China's 91% global polysilicon share — and Xinjiang polysilicon specifically is restricted from US solar panels under UFLPA (Section 3 presumption).

Did you know2024
Xinte Energy (TBEA subsidiary) was placed on the US Entity List and has faced UFLPA Withhold Release Orders. Xinte's parent TBEA Co. is a state-owned enterprise that also manufactures high-voltage power transmission equipment including transformers and cables for China's grid — meaning the same corporate family that supplies US solar polysilicon also builds Chinese military-civil power infrastructure.

Xinte Energy was created by TBEA Co. -- Xinjiang Tebian Electric Apparatus, a Chinese state enterprise based in Changji, Xinjiang -- as a vertical integration play into polysilicon when China's solar industry scaled in the 2010s. TBEA made transformers and electrical equipment; polysilicon is made through the Siemens process which requires massive amounts of electricity; Xinjiang has cheap coal-fired and hydro power; the logical connection to integrate upstream into polysilicon was straightforward. Xinte built a 120,000 MT/yr polysilicon capacity in Xinjiang, making it the fourth-largest global polysilicon producer. The US government placed Xinte on its Entity List and subjected Xinte to Withhold Release Orders under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA), effectively banning US solar equipment importers from using Xinte polysilicon. The ban created a supply shock for US solar developers who had relied on Xinjiang polysilicon supply.
