Montreal, Canada, December 18, 2006 - ICP Solar Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: ICPR), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of solar cells and products, announced today that they have signed an agreement to begin supplying solar energy solutions worth up to €15 million annually to Tejas Solares, a leading residential solar system developer. To support their expansion in the Europe, Middle East, African and Asia-Pacific markets, ICP is opening its EMEA - PAC offices in Madrid, effective immediately.


Under the terms of the binding letter of intent, ICP Solar will provide a new kind of solar tile specifically designed for Spanish home models, currently under development, to Tejas Solares. In return, Tejas Solares will commit to using ICP's innovative solution in at least 2000 homes annually on the Spanish market.

ICP's new Madrid office, located at Avenida de La Vega 1, Edificio Veganova in Alcobendas, will support this and all other contracts for European, Middle Eastern and Asia-Pacific (EMEA-PAC) clients. Serving these strong solar markets, the Spanish office will be perfectly placed to bring ICP Solar's innovative designs to Consumer, OEM and Building Integrated Solar Materials channels throughout the region.
