XC3i was founded in 2005 primarily as a consulting firm servicing the emerging photovoltaic industry. Our clients were finding it hard to secure reliable supply from traditional manufacturing and supply channels. Their needs dictated that we expand into manufacturing and product supply. Our business model is simple and very effective. We have leveraged our extensive experience in the solar industry for the benefit of our clients.
We often get asked how we arrived at the name XC3. In short, it means 93. We wanted a name that stood out from the 'solar industry crowd' yet had a meaning. Basically, XC is the Roman numerals for 90 plus 3 = 93. The sun is 93 million miles from the earth! That's how we arrived at XC3.
