My last destination was Guimaras Windfarm, with 27 gigantic wind turbines that harness electricity from the wind. The sea surrounds the island, so it’s a perfect location for renewable energy because of its breeze. According to Kuya Ken, the harnessed energy is transported to Ilo-Ilo City via cables submerged in the water. There’s a registration, but no entrance fee. We also discussed the proposed bridge connecting Guimaras to Iloilo; however, it was rejected because it could damage living underwater creatures. By the way, Bangui Windmills is the most prominent wind farm in the Philippines, and it has attracted a lot of tourists to Ilocos Norte. Just recently, I featured the Pililla Windfarm in Rizal.
