XCMG's First Overseas New Energy Factory Begins Production

On July 27, 2026, XCMG, a leading Chinese manufacturer in the construction machinery industry, inaugurated its first overseas factory dedicated to new energy production at the Indonesia Weda Bay Industrial Park (IWIP) in North Maluku province. The first batch of new energy manufacturing equipment has successfully rolled off the production line and has been delivered to its strategic partner, the Tsingshan Holding Group. This marks a significant milestone in XCMG's global strategy in the realm of sustainable energy solutions.

XCMG is undergoing a five-pronged transformation aimed at achieving high-quality, intelligent, environmentally friendly, global, and customer-centric development. The establishment of this new facility serves as a strategic initiative that intertwines global operation with environmentally sustainable industrial development, reflecting XCMG's commitment to eco-friendly practices.

The new plant will not only manufacture complete sets of new energy equipment, but it will also focus on research and development tailored to meet local operational conditions. This approach will reduce delivery times and support applications across various sectors such as mining, infrastructure, and logistics within industrial parks throughout Indonesia. By leveraging local expertise in intelligent manufacturing, the factory is poised to facilitate the large-scale delivery of electric construction machinery—vital for transitioning toward a carbon-neutral economy in Indonesia's core industries.

In addition, XCMG is developing a recycling system for used machinery and refurbishing spare parts to maximize resource efficiency. The smooth rollout of the initial batch of new energy equipment showcases a collaborative model between XCMG and IWIP, which fuses technology with practical application scenarios and aligns manufacturing efforts with market demand.

Thanks to XCMG’s expertise in intelligent manufacturing coupled with IWIP's extensive industrial ecosystem, both entities managed to complete the construction and commence production within a remarkably short timeframe. This cross-industry collaboration not only serves as a platform for sharing best practices but also offers a new paradigm for global partnerships among Chinese enterprises.

XCMG has had a strong presence in Indonesia for over 30 years, establishing a well-structured business and service framework tailored to local needs. The company's comprehensive network includes a range of sales and service stations, over 100 specialized service vehicles, and a three-tiered spare parts and maintenance support system, ensuring operational reliability for more than 30,000 XCMG machines operating throughout the region.

With the factory’s initiation, XCMG’s integrated process chain—comprising research and development, production, logistics, sales, and service in Indonesia—is now fully operational. Locally produced new energy equipment is positioned to become a cornerstone of the country's green infrastructure development. Impressively, almost 80% of XCMG's workforce in Indonesia consists of local personnel, reinforcing the company's commitment to job creation and staff development in the region.

Furthermore, XCMG was recognized again in 2026 as a part of the “Fortune China ESG Impact List,” continuing its legacy as the sole construction machinery firm on the list. This recognition underscores XCMG's dedication to economic, social, and environmental responsibility in its quest for global leadership in sustainable construction solutions.
