SUMMARY
The minimum wind speed required to activate a 6MW wind turbine with a 5-meter wingspan is contingent upon the specific design of the generator. While the exact wind speed for activation varies, achieving full power output necessitates significantly higher wind speeds. The discussion emphasizes the importance of turbine design in determining operational thresholds.
