1366 Technologies

1366 Technologies was a Bedford, Massachusetts solar manufacturing company founded in 2008 out of MIT, best known for its patented Direct Wafer process — a kerfless method that casts multicrystalline silicon photovoltaic wafers directly from molten silicon in a mold, skipping the ingot-growing and wire-sawing steps that waste roughly half the silicon in conventional wafer production. The company raised venture funding from North Bridge Venture Partners, Polaris Partners, Hanwha, Tokuyama and Breakthrough Energy Ventures, and operated a demonstration line in Bedford. In June 2021 it merged with Dallas-based Hunt Perovskite Technologies to form CubicPV, combining Direct Wafer silicon with printed perovskite to pursue tandem modules; CubicPV cancelled its planned 10 GW US wafer factory in February 2024 and refocused on perovskite tandem development. 1366 Technologies is a materials and equipment manufacturer, not a software vendor: it never operated a developer program, public API, SDK or machine-readable API contract, and its own domain 1366tech.com has served an expired TLS certificate since May 2024.

1366 Technologies is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Solar, Photovoltaics, Renewable Energy, and Manufacturing.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/1366-technologies: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  detail: 1366 Technologies is a solar silicon wafer manufacturer that ceased to exist as an independent company when it merged
    into CubicPV in June 2021, and its own domain 1366tech.com has served a TLS certificate that expired on 2024-05-04 ever
    since, so there is no company web presence left to carry an API surface — the Website pointer now resolves to the surviving
    CubicPV host.
