Rolls of Thin-Film Semi-Transparent Solar Cells May Hold Promising Commercial Future; XsunX Continues To Build On Development Success

ALISO VIEJO, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Nov. 9, 2004 -- XsunX, Inc. (OTCBB:XSNX), developer of Power Glass(TM) -- a breakthrough solar technology that allows windows to produce electricity from the power of the sun, announced today that their phase two development program is now moving to the development and testing of their process on thin film plastics. Recent success in the development of large area monolithic cell structures on glass surfaces has prompted the development move in advance of previous plans.

This area of research and development represents significant commercial importance for the company. By combining the ability to manufacture semi-transparent solar cells on thin-film inexpensive plastics with the use of patented reel-to-reel cartridge manufacturing systems, the commercial viability gains may be significant.

"Our goal is to deliver a process that allows for the simultaneous manufacture of multiple rolls of thin film plastics coated with our high quality semi-transparent solar cell design," stated Tom Djokovich, CEO of XsunX. "This would provide manufacturers with scalable opportunities to deliver Megawatts of energy producing solar cell coated plastic films for use in the world-wide glass and building materials industry."


The Company plans to provide methods for integrating renewable energy sources into living and working environments, without causing disruptive and costly changes to lifestyles, are finding timely opportunities. Recently, the rapid rises in energy costs and security concerns have gained public and political attention spurring a multitude of increased government sponsored conservation and alternative energy initiatives on a global scale.

In Spain, the government recently mandated that, beginning in 2005, the integration of solar energy systems will be mandatory in all new buildings. Spanish government estimates predict a ten fold increase in installed systems within ten years, expanding the total of installed PV to nearly six million square meters.

Initiatives, such as the one in Spain and others world-wide, are helping to promote and foster changes in how businesses, building developers and communities are planning to meet the energy demands of the twenty-first century.
