CARMANAH DELIVERS ADDITIONAL ORDER OF SOLAR LED LIGHTS TO NEW YORK CITY

Victoria, British Columbia -- October 30, 2001 -- Carmanah Technologies Inc. (CMH -- CDNX) is pleased to announce that it has fulfilled an order from Kleinberg Electric Company for delivery of its Model 702 solar L.E.D. (light emitting diode) navigation lights to New York City.

Kleinberg Electric Company is working on the construction of an emergency ferry terminal at New York Harbors Pier A, just south of Battery Park City. The emergency ferry terminal is required because some of the regular ferry terminals are being used to transport debris from the World Trade Center disaster site.

The Carmanah 700 Series is the world's most advanced line of unitized navigation lights. Designed under contract to the U.S. Coast Guard, the 700 Series are the first L.E.D. navigation lights to be developed for use in the U.S. Navigational Aid system. Utilizing a proprietary, patented combination of solar and high intensity LED technologies, the 700 Series provides reliable lighting for a range of up to 3 nautical miles. Completely self-contained and maintenance-free, these lights will provide up to 5 years of worry-free operation without battery or bulb replacement or any type of servicing.
