[Hong Kong] Po Toi Wind Farm

I've seen one of these installed on a hoarding in Admiralty. It's not a traditional wind farm, quite a small unit.

This is the mad French inventor Lucian Gambarota who tried to install an electrical generator powered by sea waves a few years ago off the east coast of Po Toi. It failed when it was washed away in the first typhoon.

Why he insists on working on Po Toi I don't know but you can be sure the locals know all about him and won't be interested in his new idea. Their power is now free thanks to PCCW.

Will it need planning permission?

I've not seen or heard of any definite proposal which states exact location, size etc.
