Exhibit 31.1

                         CERTIFICATION OF ANNUAL REPORT


I, Michael J. Luciano, certify that:

1.   I have  reviewed  this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
     December 31, 2008 of MPM Technologies, Inc. (the "Registrant");

2.   Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of
     material  fact or omit to  state a  material  fact  necessary  to make  the
     statements made, in light of the circumstances  under which such statements
     were made,  not  misleading  with  respect  to the  period  covered by this
     report;

3.   Based on my  knowledge,  the  financial  statements,  and  other  financial
     information  included  in  this  report,  fairly  present  in all  material
     respects the financial condition,  results of operations, and cash flows of
     the Registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this annual report;

4.   The  registrant's  other  certifying  officer  and  I are  responsible  for
     establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
     in Exchange Act Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) ) and internal  control over
     financial  reporting  (as  defined  in  Exchange  Act Rules  13a-15(f)  and
     15d-15(f)), for the Registrant and we have:

     a)   designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  or caused such
          disclosure   controls  and   procedures  to  be  designed   under  our
          supervision,  to ensure  that  material  information  relating  to the
          Registrant,  including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
          us by others within those entities,  particularly during the period in
          which this annual report is being prepared;

     b)   designed such internal  control over  financial  reporting,  or caused
          such internal  control over  financial  reporting to be designed under
          our  supervision,   to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the
          reliability  of financial  reporting and the  preparation of financial
          statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
          accounting principles;

     c)   evaluated the  effectiveness of the Registrant's  disclosure  controls
          and procedures and presented in this report our  conclusions  abut the
          effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end
          of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

     d)   disclosed  in this  report any  changes in the  Registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting that occurred during the Registrant's
          most recent fiscal quarter (the Registrant's  fourth fiscal quarter in
          the case of an  annual  report)  that has  materially  affected  or is
          reasonable  likely to  materially  affect  the  Registrant's  internal
          control over financial reporting; and

5.   The Registrant's  other certifying  officer and I have disclosed,  based on
     our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to
     the Registrant's  auditors and the audit committee of Registrant's board of
     directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

a)   all  significant  deficiencies  and  material  weaknesses  in the design or
     operation  of  internal   controls  over  financial   reporting  which  are
     reasonably  likely to adversely affect the registrant's  ability to record,
     process, summarize and report financial information; and

b)   any fraud,  whether or not  material,  that  involves  management  or other
     employees who have a significant role in the Registrant's internal controls
     over financial reporting.
