Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BPI Energy Announces Resignation of COO James Craddock

CLEVELAND—March 31, 2008—BPI Energy Holdings, Inc. (Amex: BPG), an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, production and commercial sale of coalbed methane (CBM) in the Illinois Basin, today announced that James E. Craddock, director and chief operating officer, has submitted his resignation to take a position with another exploration and production company outside of the Illinois Basin starting April 15, 2008. To the extent his new position allows, Mr. Craddock will make himself available as a technical advisor to the BPI Board of Directors for the next six months as needed to assist in an orderly transition and further advance BPI’s development and financing efforts. His daily responsibilities will be divided between Randy Oestreich, vice president, field operations and Michael Dawson, senior geological advisor. There are currently no plans to replace Mr. Craddock.

On the announcement, Craddock commented: “My decision to leave BPI is based solely on a new job opportunity, and does not in any way reflect on my confidence in BPI or the Illinois Basin.”

“Jim Craddock joined BPI in 2006 and has played a significant role in guiding the company’s operating strategy over the past two years,” said BPI President and CEO James G. Azlein. “We thank him for his service and support of BPI’s development, and look forward to his continuing contributions to its success as technical advisor.”
