ICP Solar Expands Solar Power Partnership with West Marine

World's largest marine retailer selects superior products tailored for boaters

Montreal, Canada, February 12, 2007 - ICP Solar Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: ICPR), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of solar cells and products, announced today that it has expanded its partnership with West Marine, the world's largest specialty retailer of boating supplies and apparel, by enlarging the range of Sunsei' Brand solar charger products available at West Marine stores.


"We spent the past year helping West Marine roll out a superior solar panel program, specifically designed and manufactured for rugged marine environments. Through past supply relationships, West Marine had growing concerns about the accuracy of the rated outputs for solar panels. As a reflection of their firm commitment to providing the highest level of quality and reliability for their clients, West Marine chose to independently confirm that ICP Solar's panels delivered their rated outputs. We are proud to say that they have selected us as partner for the 2007 season, and look forward to continued double digit growth in this exciting category," said ICP Solar CEO and Chairman, Sass Peress.

ICP Solar's Sunsei panels are the only ones in the industry featuring 100% marine grade stainless steel components with anodized aluminum framing, thus helping to ensure their ability to withstand the rigors and demands of the deep seas. With mounting brackets specifically designed for cruisers and larger sailboats, they do not have to be mounted through the decks, thus averting the drilling of holes so common to other standard panels. Their patented indicators give ICP Solar's panels the added advantage of constant reassurance that power is being generated whenever there is daylight.

"Our philosophy is simple", adds Laurent Lafite, ICP Solar's Director of Marketing. "We want to make the boating experience a completely peaceful one with the help of our solar powered solutions. When you are reading a book on deck, the last thing you need to hear is the generator or smell the smoke of a running motor to keep the batteries charged. The solar stories of our customers must be second to none".

PVKIT 2.0 is the also the best solution for attaching PV modules directly to any exposed fastener metal roof.
