The Brooklyn wind turbine was installed on the top of a hill in Brooklyn, Wellington in March 1993 as part of a research project.
The Brooklyn site was chosen for the wind evaluation project due to Wellington’s “higher than normal” wind patterns.

There are 25 windmills, each 20-stories high, on the North side of I-8 near Campo Blvd, an hour east of San Diego (18 miles north of the Mexican border). Called the “Kumeyaay Wind project”, these power 12-15,000 homes and is 70 times larger than the next largest wind project on tribal land.

    Very nice blog! Thanks for stopping by mine the other day:) I will vote for you on bloggers choice as well. I may use one of these turbine pics as a zen moment, as I’m all about green energy. Keep up the good work!

    Amazing that people are fighting to keep these things out of their neighborhood because they don't like how they look. I think they look great as these pictures well point out.
