The company expects to take approximately 25,080MT of high-purity polysilicon from Xinte Energy and its subsidiary, Xinjiang Xinte Crystal Silicon High-Tech Co., Ltd in 2019, rising to 30,000MT in 2020 and 36,000MT in the final year of the supply agreement. 

The total number of purchases in the year is 25,080 tons, and the total purchase amount in 2020 is 30,000 tons.

LONGi had expanded annual p-type monocrystalline wafer production to 15GW at the end of 2017, up 2GW from previous plans, due to an accelerated production ramp to meet demand, while plans have remained unchanged to reach a nameplate capacity of 28GW by the end of 2018 and 36GW by the end of 2019, reaching its stated goal of 45GW by the end of 2020.
