    JUPITER, FL, May 26, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Hydro Alternative Energy, Inc. ("HAE" or the "Company"), a renewable energy company, announced today that it has entered into a binding three year letter of intent with Groupe Financier de l'Union, S.A., a Haitian corporation ("GFU") headed by Richard Sassine, a well-established Haitian entrepreneur.

Mark Antonucci, HAE's co-founder and President, stated "We are very excited about partnering with Groupe Financier de l'Union and such a relationship, we believe, will give us the high profile opportunity to participate in addressing the needs and rebuilding of Haiti's critical infrastructure. Our current and planned 'green technology' solutions for the development of sustained, reliable, cost-effective electrical power generation systems utilizing hydrokinetic energy are just what is needed to complement the worldwide efforts currently underway to bring Haiti forward into the 21st century. We look forward to our participation in this inspiring and ongoing humanitarian effort."

Enrique Pallares, a recently elected new member of HAE's Board of Directors who was instrumental in HAE procuring the letter of intent with GFU, was quoted as saying "Groupe Financier de l'Union, led by Mr. Richard Sassine, is without any doubt the best partner that any company desiring to develop services within Haiti can get. We are proud and excited to be represented by GFU and we hope we can very soon bring energy generation solutions that will take Haiti to a stable and steady pace of development."

Richard Sassine, GFU's Chairman, was quoted as saying, "Introducing the technologies developed by HAE for clean power generation in Haiti should play an important role not only in meeting Haiti's energy shortfalls, but also in introducing to the world energy market a natural, viable and affordable alternative energy source."
