MetaPower International, Inc. Selected to Create Process Management Unit for
Major Energy Client

LAS VEGAS, June 19, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- MetaPower International, Inc. (Pink
Sheets:MTPW) is pleased to announce that the Company has been selected to
institute and staff a business process management function for one of its
clients at a major oil refining facility in the Oil Sands Region of Northern
Alberta, Canada. The process management function will be specifically tailored
to the needs and particular requirements of the refinery industry, and involve a
method to systematically catalog, evaluate, organize and upgrade the management
of the facility. The project is expected to significantly improve the overall
efficiency of the operation while reducing costs.

In the high-profile petroleum industry, business operations must be streamlined
to improve performance and operational efficiency, and MetaPower has been
engaged with this client to improve its plant performance through enhanced
maintenance reliability programs. The new process management model is a step
beyond previous improvements, establishing new management practices for possible
use in additional refining facilities. Once established, MetaPower expects to
market the management model to other potential clients.

"We are very excited about this opportunity. We have worked with several clients
to develop these types of organizational units and believe it will pay big
dividends for this client. We expect that this will require several MetaPower
business analysts to support this organization for the next year or so," stated
Ken Allen, CEO of MetaPower International, Inc.

MetaPower provides planning and scheduling services, maintenance training,
procedure development and change management consulting as part of the engagement
with this client. MetaPower International recently announced that the Company's
revenue increased by 229 percent for the First Quarter, 2008 compared with
revenues from the First Quarter 2007. The Company generated $1,604,910 in
revenues in the First Quarter of 2008, in contrast to the $488,148 reported
revenue for the First Quarter last year, 2007. In addition, the First Quarter
2008 revenues represent a 33% increase over the Company's 2007 Fourth Quarter
revenues of $1,210,241.
