Atlantic Wind & Solar Advances Rooftop Solar Project in the City of Brampton, Ontario

   Atlantic Wind & Solar Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AWSL) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option to lease agreement with an Ontario realty company, on a 45,000 square foot commercial building located in the City of Brampton, Ontario.

The rooftop will be utilized for one 250kW solar system, to be installed upon Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) application approval from the Ontario Power Authority (OPA).

Upon completion of the PV solar energy system, the electricity generated will be sold directly into the grid to the OPA for 71.3 cents per kilowatt hour under the terms and conditions of the Ontario government's Feed In Tariff (FIT) program.

Based on the average amount of sunlight in the Province, the power sold from this single project is expected to generate in excess of $300,000.00 per year, totaling approximately $6 million in secured gross revenues for AWSL, and its partners over the next 20 years.

Mr. Brent O'Connor, Geneva Bancorp Investor Relations Director for AWSL commented: "Today's progress update represents the advancement of another project from its LOI stage, closer to its final construction stage. The extensive process had taken several months to qualify... However, with the recent implementation of the company's new streamlined commercial rooftop lease execution process, the company expects to start advancing and reporting several more similar scale projects from its extensive pipeline in the near future."

AWSL... Poised for Growth

The acceleration of increased interest, financing, and other developments in the past few months augurs well for Atlantic Wind and Solar's business and overall growth in 2010. The Company intends to further expand in 2010 through strategically targeted acquisitions and potential expansion to offshore Renewable Energy markets.

AWSL management is optimistic that the progress achieved over the past 12-18 months in establishing the Company as a leading developer in the Ontario Renewable Energy market has positioned Atlantic Wind and Solar for rapid growth and enhancement of shareholder value in the foreseeable future.
