WORCESTER, Mass., Dec. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mass Megawatts Wind Power, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MMGW) reports that its Hunter, New York project has been substantially completed and started testing the new wind augmenter and wind diverter (both patent pending). The project is planned to be online on a full time basis after the initial tests on the new technology are completed and its (generator overspeed control) furling system is fully tested. The initial results show that the Wind Augmenter increases the wind velocity more than 50%, leading to a 3 fold increase in energy production. Additionally, the Wind Diverter contributes toward an additional increase of at least 100% more power output from the blades.

Mass Megawatts' MAT (Multiaxis Turbosystem) utilizes new technology in such a way as to enhance the wind speed while downsizing vertical height and lowering steel costs. This allows for an affordable and stable wind machine using mostly simplistic, off-the-shelf parts. It runs virtually silent and has none of the blade tip noise of traditional horizontal axis windmills. Also, migratory bird kills are projected to be minimal due to the MAT's visible structure.

The Hunter Project utilizes the latest technology, namely its wind augmenter and wind diverter (both patent pending). The augmenter funnels wind into the blades increasing functional wind speed while the diffuser deflects the wind from the back side of the returning blade reducing drag and increasing output.

If initial test results continue to hold true, Mass Megawatts (MMGW.OB) remains not only competitive with other wind technology on the market, but with fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas in high wind locations.

Mass Megawatts Wind Power, Inc. (MMGW.OB) has a market capitalization of less than $5 million and the company has very little debt.

This press release contains forward-looking statements that could be affected by risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to Mass Megawatts Wind Power's ability to produce a cost-effective wind energy conversion device. Among the factors that could cause actual events to differ materially from those indicated herein are: the failure of Mass Megawatts Wind Power, Inc. (MMGW.OB) to achieve or maintain necessary zoning approvals with respect to the location of its MAT power developments; the ability to remain competitive; to finance the marketing and sales of its electricity; general economic conditions; and other risk factors detailed in periodic reports filed by Mass Megawatts Wind Power, Inc.(MMGW.OB).
