Solar Stocks on the Run

Renewable Energy Stocks Sector Close-Up on Solar Stocks Raised Targets, Japan Reinstating Solar Subsidies and Technical Trading Incite Run

POINT ROBERTS, WA and DELTA, BC—June 24, 2008 -- www.RenewableEnergyStocks.com,

a leading investor news and research portal for the renewable energy sector within Investorideas.com, presents a sector close-up on solar stocks with commentary from solar expert J. Peter Lynch, Adam Krop, Vice President-Equity Research at Ardour Capital Investments and Robert Wilder, Manager of the WilderHill Clean Energy Index.

Solar stocks were given a boost as Lehman Brothers raised targets on Evergreen Solar Inc. and First Solar Inc. First Solar was up $19.78 (7.37%) on the day following Lehman's analyst, Vishal Shah,
increasing his price target to $335 from $280.

Renewable Energy Stocks solar expert, J. Peter Lynch, commented, "Solar stocks are beginning to come back from their recent correction. About half of the stocks I follow have broken above their 50- day moving averages. If the tax credits get extended the whole sector will run up, but it will require a close eye and the ability to exit quickly if the extension fails."

According to Adam Krop, Vice President-Equity Research at Ardour Capital Investments, LLC,
"In addition to Lehman upgrade, solar stocks are moving higher on chatter that Japan may be on the verge of reinstating solar subsidies to make up for lost market share in the past two and a half years."

The Ardour Solar Energy Index (Market, News), a compilation of global solar energy stocks
in three primary solar energy sectors: Photovoltaics, Solar Thermal, and Solar Lighting was up $9.20 at the close.

Robert Wilder, Manager of the WilderHill Clean Energy Index (^ECO) noted, "One needn't look very far to see why several solar stocks have seen increasing valuations lately. With oil around unprecedented highs, Saudis unable to calm concerns they cannot make up for growing depletion of existing supply, natural gas demand outstripping supply, and coal costs rising to boot, there's an environment of new attention to alternatives."

"Solar could make up 10% of U.S. generation by 2025 according to a recent utility solar assessment study by Clean Edge and Co-op America. This kind of projection evidences the growth potential of the Solar Industry to its participants, and we feel privileged to be a part of it," said Tom Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. (OTCBB: XSNX).
