APHC is committed to implementing the wind projects if the wind measurements and site-specific studies demonstrate that the power plants are commercially viable. [3] Phase 1 of this project is a wind farm in Barangay Halayhayin in Pililla, Rizal, Philippines. The wind farm is being undertaken by Alternergy Wind One Corporation. [4]
A project of similar size and capacity (1,500 MW), Taurus Wind, would be directly west of Lava Ridge. Salmon Falls Wind (800 MW) would be located approximately 30 miles south of Lava Ridge. Three solar projects located just east of US 93 to the north and south of Midpoint Substation would cover 10,000 acres with a combined capacity of over ...

[1] was the first fully licensed, independent large-scale wind farm to reach financial close in Kenya and on completion (scheduled for Q2 2015) was due to deliver electricity derived from renewable energy to circa 150,000 Kenyan households, via KPLC and the national grid.
SunZia Wind is a 3.5-gigawatt wind farm being developed in New Mexico, United States, in Lincoln County, San Miguel County and Torrance County. [1] When completed, this will be the largest wind project in the western hemisphere. [ 2 ]
The second phase of the project became active on January 27, 2012. [10] This phase completed the 14-turbine project, adding 15 MW, for a cumulative 35 MW of power. [1] In community action, First Wind has used the Steel Winds project to raise awareness and funds for research into breast cancer.
The Stateline Wind Farm is a wind farm located on Vansycle Ridge, which receives 16 to 18 mph (26 – 29 km/h) average wind speeds from the Columbia Gorge, on the border between Washington and Oregon in the United States. With 454 turbines, [1] it is the largest wind project in the Northwestern United States.
