14,454,290 Explanatory Note Introduction This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D") amends the Schedule 13D filed on July 17, 2007 (the "Schedule 13D") by the Reporting Persons relating to their beneficial ownership of the Common Stock (as defined in Item 1, below) of Composite Technology Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the "Issuer"). Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (i) amends and restates Item 3 and Item 5 and (ii) reflects a material change in the number of shares beneficially owned by certain Reporting Persons and the percentage of class represented by such ownership since the filing of the Schedule 13D for each Reporting Person. Except for the above-referenced amendments, Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule 13D. Item 1. Security and Issuer. The name of the Issuer is Composite Technology Corporation. The address of the Issuers offices is 2026 McGaw Avenue, Irvine, California 92614. This Schedule 13D relates to the Issuers Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"). Item 2. Identity and Background. (a)-(c), (f). This statement is being filed by Grandview LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Grandview"), Millennium Partners, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership ("Millennium Partners") and Millenco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (formerly Millenco, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership), ("Millenco"). Millenco is a broker-dealer and a member of the American Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ. Millennium Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Millennium Management"), is the managing partner of Millennium Partners and the manager of Grandview and Millenco, and consequently may be deemed to have voting control and investment discretion over securities owned by Grandview, Millennium Partners and Millenco, as the case may be. Israel A. Englander ("Mr. Englander") is the managing member of Millennium Management. As a result, Mr. Englander may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of any shares deemed to be beneficially owned by Millennium Management. The foregoing should not be construed in and of itself as an admission by Millennium Management or Mr. Englander as to beneficial ownership of the shares owned by Grandview, Millennium Partners or Millenco, as the case may be. The business address for Grandview, Millennium Partners, Millenco, Millennium Management and Mr. Englander is c/o Millennium Management LLC, 666 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10103. Mr. Englander is a United States citizen. Note: Integrated Holding Group LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("Integrated Holding Group"), is a non-managing member of Millenco. As a non-managing member, Integrated Holding Group has no voting control or investment discretion over Millenco or its securities positions. (d) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). (e) On December 1, 2005, Millennium Management and Mr. Englander, together with Millennium Partners and certain related persons and entities, entered into settlements with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Attorney General of the State of New York (the "NYAG") relating to allegations that Millennium Partners had engaged in a pattern of deceptive "market timing" of mutual fund shares in years prior to 2004 and, in the case of the settlement with the NYAG only, had failed to take adequate steps to prevent a trader from engaging in mutual fund "late trading" in violation of firm policy. The parties neither admitted nor denied the allegations or findings (except as to jurisdiction) but consented to the entry of findings. The SEC proceedings are In the Matter of Millennium Partners, L.P., et al. Securities Act Release No. 8639 (December 1, 2005), available at www.sec.gov. Contemporaneously, the NYAG
issued an Assurance of Discontinuance relating to the claims and findings of that office. Neither the Reporting Persons nor any other party admitted or denied any of the allegations or findings in these matters. The remedies included disgorgement by the entities of approximately $148 million of mutual fund trading profits, civil penalties aggregating approximately $32.15 million (with approximately $30 million being paid by Mr. Englander), an administrative order to cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act, and prophylactic relief. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement dated February 12, 2007 between the Issuer and the purchasers named therein (including Grandview), ("February 2007 Securities Purchase Agreement"), Grandview paid $5,000,000 for an 8% senior convertible debenture in the original principal amount of $5,000,000, due January 31, 2010 ("Senior Convertible Debenture"). In connection with the February 2007 Securities Purchase Agreement, Grandview was also issued a warrant to purchase 2,403,847 shares of Common Stock ("February 2007 Warrant"). Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement dated June 11, 2007 ("June 2007 Securities Purchase Agreement") between the Issuer and the purchasers named therein (including Millennium Partners), Millennium Partners acquired 3,030,304 units ("Units"), at $0.99 per Unit, for total consideration of $3,000,000. Each Unit consists of one share of Common Stock and one-quarter of a warrant to purc
hase Common Stock ("June 2007 Warrant"). The amount of funds used to purchase the remaining shares of Common Stock, beneficially owned by Millenco, in the transactions giving rise to this Schedule 13D was approximately $5,404,700 (excluding brokerage commissions), by account. Grandview, Millennium Partners, and Millenco effect purchases of securities primarily through margin accounts maintained for Grandview, Millennium Partners, and Millenco with prime brokers, which may extend margin credit to Grandview, Millennium Partners, and Millenco as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable Federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the prime brokers credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. The Reporting Persons are engaged in the investment business. In pursuing this business, the Reporting Persons analyze the operations, capital structure and markets of companies, including the Issuer, on a continuous basis, through analysis of documentation and discussions with knowledgeable industry and market observers and with representatives of such companies (often at the invitation of management). From time to time, one or more of the Reporting Persons may hold discussions with third parties or with management of such companies in which the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management or capital structure of such companies as a means of enhancing shareholder value. Such suggestions or positions may relate to one or more of the transactions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D of the Exchange Act, including, without limitation, such matters as disposing of or selling all o
r a portion of the company or acquiring another company or business, changing operating or marketing strategies, adopting or not adopting certain types of anti-takeover measures and restructuring the Issuers capitalization or dividend policy. The Reporting Persons employ the services of a number of portfolio managers, each of whom independently employs a separate and distinct trading strategy. A portion of the securities of the Issuer held by the Reporting Persons are held in accounts of the Reporting Persons managed by portfolio managers who engage in event-, risk- or merger-arbitrage or fundamental strategies. Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions required to be described in Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Each of the Reporting Persons may, at any time, review or reconsider its position with respect to the Issuer and formulate plans or proposals with respect to any of such matters, but has no present intention of doing so. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. (a) As of the date hereof:
