Basics of Wind Energy Production
In general, wind turbines begin to produce power at wind speeds of about 6.7 mph (3 m/s). A turbine will achieve its nominal, or rated, power at approximately 26 mph to 30 mph (12 m/s to 13 m/s); this value

The Most Frequently Asked Questions about Wind Energy
Generally, annual average wind speeds greater than four meters per second (m/s) (9 mph) are required for small wind electric turbines (less wind is required for water-pumping operations). Utility-scale wind

WIND FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (V10.09)
Utility-scale wind power plants require minimum average wind speeds of 6 m/s (13 mph). The power available in the wind is proportional to the cube of its speed, which means that doubling the wind
