Burnaby, BC - June 24, 2008 - Day4 Energy Inc. (TSX: DFE), a leading manufacturer of high performance, cost-effective solar electric modules, announced the completion of 16 solar energy systems at the Habitat for Humanity Jimmy Carter Work Project in San Pedro, California. With new residents celebrating their moving Saturday, nearly 200 advanced Day4 48 MC modules will soon begin providing the community with reliable, affordable clean electricity from the sun.

"Day4 Energy was founded on the principle of making solar energy cost effective through our advanced modules. We recognize that part of that mission includes making solar accessible to all, regardless of economic standing," said Day4 Energy Vice President of Marketing and Business Development Jake Brown. "These Day4 modules will provide residents with a low-cost source of renewable electricity for decades to come, reducing energy bills and directly supporting Habitat for Humanity' s goal of securing affordable living accommodations."

The 16-unit home development is located in the Los Angeles port community of San Pedro and is the first Jimmy Carter Work Project seeking LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Certification. The 16 solar electric systems, one per home, were designed and commissioned by GRID Alternatives, a non-profit that works directly with community volunteers to install solar electric systems for low-income families throughout California, and were installed by the members of the Los Angeles branch of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 11.

The new residents and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles (GLA) are hosting a block party celebration on June 21 to commemorate the green housing development. The event will take place from 11am to 2pm at 300 N Palos Verdes St, San Pedro, CA 90731.

"We believe making energy choices that are good for the environment can go hand-in-hand with improving the lives of those living in low-income communities," said Tim Sears at GRID Alternatives. "Solar electricity is an abundant and predictable resource, particularly in Southern California. By partnering advanced photovoltaic technology with volunteer labor and resources, we are delivering the benefits of solar power to those who need it most."

"Providing access to renewable energy directly supports our goals as an organization to help families in need and reduce poverty," said Erin Rank, president and CEO of Habitat for Humanity GLA. "We look forward to installing solar installations on future Habitat for Humanity GLA projects throughout Los Angeles and eventually spread nation-wide."

The Day4 48 MC solar panel is based on the company's proprietary Day4 Electrode technology, an innovative approach to module construction that directly replaces decades-old soldering methods. The result is a high-quality Day4 solar electric product with higher performance, improved aesthetics and lower cost.
