Three years since it started its reforestation initiatives in the mountains of Pagudpud, North Luzon Renewables (NLR) has completed and even exceeded the replanting requirement set by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).
As of September 30, 2017, NLR has planted 209,874 seedlings within the vicinity of its 81MW wind farm in Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte with a survival rate of 94%, going beyond the required 205,000 goal set by DENR. NLR’s wind farm stretches across the 625-hectare forest area which the company develops and protects under the Forest Landuse Agreement (FLAg) with the environment department.
