The overall worth of the deal is approximated at around CNY 16.916 billion (USD 2.6 bn/EUR 2.2 bn), consisting of tax, based upon the most recent price of polysilicon announced by PVInfoLink, Xinte Energy stated.

2 months ago, the company signed a comparable contract to provide 70,350 tonnes of polysilicon to PV tools maker Wuxi Shangji Automation Co Ltd (SHA:603185).

Xinte Energy is wanting to increase the polysilicon production capacity with the building of a 100,000-tonne-per-year plant in Inner Mongolia. The board recently offered its green light to the proposition to construct the plant, but said the needed investment would certainly need the approval from the investors as well.
