Bangui Windmills are located in Bangui, Ilocos Norte, Philippines. It is also known as the NorthWind Bangui Bay Project, a project by the NorthWind Development Corporation as a practice renewable energy sources and to help reduce the greenhouse gases that cause global warming. The project is the first “Wind Farm” in the Philippines consisting of wind turbines on-shore facing the South China Sea and considered to be the biggest in Southeast Asia. The project sells electricity to the Ilocos Norte Electric Cooperative (INEC) and provides 40% of the power requirements of Ilocos Norte via Transco Laoag.

This week’s entry on Litratong Pinoy – Ihip ng Hangin. Muli kong ibinabalik ang Bangui Windmills para sa entry na ito. Mga natirang litrato noong ako’y bumisita sa Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte last March 2008.
