About CTC:
Composite Technology Corporation, based in Irvine, California, USA develops, manufactures and sells high performance electrical transmission and renewable energy generation products through its subsidiaries:
* CTC Cable Corporation produces composite rod for use in its proprietary ACCC aluminum conductor composite core. ACCC conductors virtually eliminate the sag in power lines caused by high current and high line temperatures. ACCC conductors also reduce electricity line losses, and have demonstrated significant savings in capital and operating expenses when substituted for other conductors. ACCC conductors enable grid operators to eliminate blackouts and brownouts, providing a 'reserve electrical capacity' by operating at higher temperatures. ACCC conductors are an innovative solution for reconductoring power lines, constructing new lines and crossing large spans. ACCC composite rod is delivered to qualified conductor manufacturers worldwide for local ACCC conductor production and resale into local markets. * DeWind, Inc., and EU Energy Ltd., produce, sell, and license the DeWind series of wind energy turbines including the 50Hz D6 rated at 1.25 megawatts (MW) and the 50Hz D8 rated at 2MW, both noted for their reliability. In 2007, the first new 2MW D8.2 turbines are planned to be delivered to North American customers from assembly operations in Germany and the US. The D8.2 utilizes the advanced WinDrive(R) hydrodynamic torque converter developed by Voith AG with a synchronous AC generator that is able to connect directly to the grid without the use of power conversion electronics. The DeWind D8.2 will be available in both a 60Hz and 50Hz version.
