Wind Power Station 7
Wind Power Station 7 is a decommissioned wind power station on Zanzibar Island off the northeast coast of Tanzania on Earth. It is noted as being a Mute reminder of the East African Protectorate's late 25th-century attempt at re-nationalization.[1] An ancient fortress is located just next to the power station.
Some of these sites were said to have been training sites for the Spartans.[2] There were likely many more stations similar to this all over Earth and other UNSC worlds.
