Capacity to 70,000 MT Per Annum</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: center">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white">Shihezi, China&mdash;September
16, 2019&mdash;Daqo New Energy Corp. (NYSE: DQ) (&quot;Daqo New Energy&quot;, the &quot;Company&quot; or &quot;we&quot;), a leading
manufacturer of high-purity polysilicon for the global solar PV industry, today announced that it had begun pilot production at
its new Phase 4A polysilicon production facility in Shihezi, Xinjiang. The Company expects Phase 4A to gradually ramp up to full
production capacity and to increase its total annual production capacity to 70,000 MT by the end of this year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Mr. Longgen Zhang, CEO of Daqo New Energy, commented, &ldquo;We
are very excited to have successfully completed the construction and installation of Phase 4A months ahead of schedule. I would
like to thank our entire Xinjiang team for their hard work and dedication to make this possible. We have already started pilot
production at Phase 4A and expect to ramp up production to full capacity by the end of this year, which will increase our total
annual polysilicon production capacity to 70,000 MT. In addition, with greater economies of scale, higher manufacturing efficiency,
and cutting-edge equipment and process, we expect the total cost of polysilicon production at our Xinjiang facilities to decrease
to approximately US$6.80/kg in the first quarter of 2020.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;We have seen that mono-crystalline solar technology is
rapidly expanding market share and accounting for an increasingly significant portion of capacity expansion projects of our solar
wafer customers. We believe that mono technology will account for over 80% of the global PV market by the end of 2020. The supply
of ultra-high-quality mono-grade polysilicon still lags behind the growing demand. As a result, mono-grade polysilicon is being
sold at a significant premium over multi-grade polysilicon. We believe that product quality is just as important as cost structure
to a polysilicon producer&rsquo;s profitability, if not more.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;As one of the first-tier high-quality polysilicon providers,
we sell approximately 85% of our products to mono customers and expect to increase this percentage to 90% after Phase 4A is fully
ramped up. At the same time, we are also working closely with some key customers to test our products for potential N-type mono
wafer applications, which requires even higher quality polysilicon when compared to standard P-type mono wafer. We are aiming to
be market-ready and produce approximately 40% of our total polysilicon products for potential N-type applications in 2020.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;With the solar industry rapidly approaching grid parity,
the successful completion of Phase 4A facility will provide us with added high-quality polysilicon capacity which will allow us
to benefit from the sustainable growth of the global solar PV market. It also demonstrates our strong execution capabilities, deep
understanding of our customers&rsquo; needs, and our long-term commitment to the solar PV industry. We&rsquo;ve made it a priority
to address climate change for the next generation and to make solar PV one of the cleanest, most sustainable, and most cost-effective
sources of energy.&rdquo;</P>
