WORCESTER, Mass., May 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mass Megawatts Wind
Power, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MMGW) announced today that the cost of
producing its wind power plants is declining with improved technology. As a
result, Mass Megawatts can compete more effectively with fossil fuels like
oil and natural gas in high wind areas. Engineering design modifications
have resulted in several innovations. Mass Megawatts is using less
expensive mechanical parts after undergoing 18 months of outdoor testing.
On many occasions, the weather was very severe during the testing period.
In another example of cost reduction, the use of air flow acceleration
techniques normally not cost effective for wind power systems is a method
being used to compete more effectively. In order to be successful with the
use of air flow acceleration techniques like diffusers and wind
augmentation, Mass Megawatts' wind power plants are being constructed to be
strong enough for withstanding the long term wear and tear of turbulence
related to diffuser airflow. Additionally, Mass Megawatts is using less
expensive material with its diffusers in order to achieve cost reductions.
In the past, engineering or cost related issues prevented the more common
horizontal axis wind turbines from commercializing the use of diffusers.
This press release contains forward-looking statements that could be
affected by risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to Mass
Megawatts Wind Power, Inc.'s ability to commercialize a 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. to achieve or maintain necessary zoning
approvals with respect to the location of its MAT power developments;
general economic conditions; and other risk factors detailed in periodic
reports filed by Mass Megawatts Wind Power, Inc.
