Western GeoPower Corp. (TSX VENTURE:WGP) (FRANKFURT:WE6), a renewable energy
company, today announced the resignation of Kenneth MacLeod as President, CEO
and a Director of the company effective immediately. Daryl Clark has been named
President & CEO on an interim basis, also effective immediately.


The changeover reflects the expected completion of the previously disclosed
business combination between Western GeoPower and two other geothermal
companies, resulting in a more broadly diversified entity under the leadership
of Hezy Ram and the Ram Power management team.


"Ken's leadership of Western GeoPower since its launch in 2001 has been a
significant contributor to the company's ongoing success. He was instrumental in
creating a strategic vision and implementing a plan to make Western GeoPower an
important geothermal developer in North America," said Daryl Clark, Chairman of
Western GeoPower. "On behalf of the Board of Directors, we wish him the very
best in his future endeavors."


"I have enjoyed the opportunity to lead Western GeoPower for over seven years",
said Mr. Macleod. "We have assembled a strong technical team and are well
positioned to transition from a stand alone development stage company to become
part of a larger, well capitalized company through the proposed business
combination. The new company will have a broad and diversified pipeline of
projects ranging from operating to near term operating and early stage
development. I am confident that the Board will realize the full potential of
the merged company."
