The Story Behind Our Name

The “1366” in 1366 Technologies refers to the solar constant or the amount of the sun’s energy that hits the earth’s atmosphere per square meter. It’s an impressive number and a constant reminder that the sun over our heads reliably provides all of the energy our planet currently needs.
