Everyday Life Around The World: Air

Bangui Wind Farm @ mirandablue
The first wind farm in the Philippines and considered to be the biggest in Southeast Asia.  The Bangui Windmills are the first power-generating wind farm located in Bangui, Ilocos Norte.  The site, at the northwest tip of Luzon, faces the South China Sea from where the wind blows towards the land.  It is a 9-kilometer stretch of sea shore, undeveloped and uninhabited, making it an ideal site for this project.
