(I don't usually play penny stocks, but I've been following this company for many years and I really like their ACCC product and hope that some day this company does well...I bought 10K shares this morning after reading this news...)

IRVINE, CA--(Marketwire - 12/29/10) - Composite Technology Corporation (CTC) (OTC.BB: CPTC) is pleased to announce that its CTC Cable Corporation subsidiary has received "Type Certification" for its ACCC® conductor in the Country of Qatar. Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation ("KAHRAMAA"), Qatar's sole transmission and distribution system owner and operator (TDSOO) for the electricity and water sector in Qatar, issued the "Type Test Approval" on December 20, 2010. Type Test Approval by KAHRAMAA allows the specification of ACCC® conductor for use in electrical transmission and distribution lines in Qatar.

"With billions of dollars expected to be invested in Qatar in preparation for the World Cup in 2022, the market will represent a significant opportunity for our expansion in the Gulf. ACCC® conductors offer a green, focused economical solution to help congested electrical grids manage increased demands.

We have a very clear strategy and are squarely on target to obtain Type Registration of the ACCC® conductor worldwide to accelerate its adoption. The low sag characteristic of the ACCC® conductor combined with its high efficiency and high capacity performance makes the composite core conductor technology an ideal conductor for use in the Middle East where high ambient temperatures are prevalent. KAHRAMAA issued the Type Test Approval after conducting a rigorous review of our test data. Qatar represents a great achievement for us in the Gulf region and the approval will resonate significantly with other Gulf countries. We expect many more countries that are currently in process to follow," commented Ebbie K. Nakhjavani, Senior Vice President Global Strategies for CTC Cable.

About CTC:

Composite Technology Corporation's patented ACCC® conductor technology enables superior performance of high voltage transmission and distribution electrical grids. ACCC conductors use CTC's proven carbon fiber core which is produced by its subsidiary, CTC Cable Corporation, at its Irvine, California headquarters and delivered to qualified conductor manufacturers who produce and distribute ACCC conductors to operators of electrical grids worldwide. CTC's conductor technology significantly reduces thermal line sag and can replace similar diameter and weight traditional conductors with its higher capacity and more energy efficient ACCC conductor. It is an ideal conductor for both upgrading existing power lines as well as building new lines since the technology allows for the reduction of the number of support structures and/or a reduction of their height. Since its commercial introduction in 2005, ACCC conductor has been selected for over 6,000 miles (over 9,700 kilometers) of projects in all environmental and operating conditions, including severe heat and ice environments, long span applications and high capacity corridors for the modern grid. ACCC® is a registered trademark of CTC Cable Corporation.

Another reason I bought today is because of the chart...The technical indicators show slightly more bull than bear, and it looks like it has bottomed...This area has historically been a strong level of support, and I will hold unless the $.20 level of support fails on a closing basis...
