XCMG opens first overseas new energy factory in Indonesia

XCMG said its Indonesia New Energy Manufacturing Base began production on July 27 at Indonesia Weda Bay Industrial Park in North Maluku Province, marking the company's first overseas new energy factory. The launch was accompanied by the first batch of new energy equipment rolling off the line and being delivered to strategic partner Tsingshan Holding Group's IWIP. The company said the facility combines equipment manufacturing, localized R&D (research and development) tailored to operating conditions, and local services, a setup intended to shorten delivery times and serve mining, infrastructure and industrial park logistics demand in Indonesia. XCMG said the base will use local smart manufacturing to support large-scale supply of electric construction machinery and aid the low-carbon transition of key industries, while also building a used-equipment circulation and parts remanufacturing system. XCMG described the project as part of its broader push toward high-end, intelligent, green, global and service-oriented development, with global operations and green industry as strategic priorities. It said the plant's commissioning completes an integrated R&D, production, supply, sales and service chain in Indonesia. The company added that it has operated in Indonesia for more than 30 years, supports more than 30,000 units of equipment through local sales and service networks, more than 100 specialized service vehicles, and a three-tier spare parts and maintenance system, and that local employees make up nearly 80% of its workforce in the country. XCMG also said XCMG Machinery was again named to the Fortune China ESG Impact List in 2026, remaining the only construction machinery company on the list.
