These idiots who kept posting this misinformation, honestly.
You can't just install wind turbines anywhere you wish. Bicol peninsula is exposed to the full brunt of typhoon winds. The climate doesn't permit consistent wind power there.

Batanes has consistent strong winds, being also exposed on both sectors, however, one cannot simply install wind turbines there because of the strong annual and historical maximums (Odette - 306 kph; Ferdie - 275 kph).
Mindanao is relatively safe from typhoons, with Malaybalay and Gen. San. having historical maxima of less than 100 kph. However, winds are not consistently strong.
One can install wind turbines along the Kitanglad and Kalatungan Mountain Range, because that's violating ancestral domain. And there's risk of katabatic winds.
One can't install wind turbines along Benguet, because it's only exposed to the SW sector.

In a nutshell, the reason why the wind turbines are there because there are consistent winds there, rather than because of the "political will" as you go to say.
