***SolarCraft Completes New Solar Electric System; Avalon
Natural Products Saves Thousands Annually

NOVATO, Calif.
March 8, 2005

SolarCraft Services has announced that they have commissioned
a 106-kilowatt photovoltaic (PV) system for Avalon Natural
Products of Petaluma, the largest manufacturer of natural and
organic personal products in the U.S.

The recently completed SolarCraft PV system provides 100% of
Avalon's electricity needs on an annual basis for the
company's 55,000 square foot office and distribution center.
Avalon received a rebate for approximately 50% of the cost
from the California Energy Commission and expects to save
$35,000 per year in electrical expenses.

SolarCraft Services, headquartered in Novato, engineered and
installed the roof-mounted system. The system's PV panels
convert sunlight directly into electricity and will generate
approximately 175,000 kilowatt hours of energy annually.

SolarCraft installed a non-penetrating roof mounting system,
which maintains the integrity of Avalon's large flat roof. The
roof mounting system, manufactured by RWE Schott Solar, is
wind tunnel tested up to 130 miles per hour. SolarCraft then
installed Schott's high-performing ASE 300 solar panels, which
are guaranteed for 20 years.
