Wind turbines are designed to operate at relatively low wind speeds because of their aerodynamic blade shape. The wind passing over the blades creates high-pressure zones underneath and low-pressure zones above, generating a lifting force that makes them spin with minimal effort. However, they do not generate electricity when it's not windy or when the wind speed drops below the “cut-in-speed”. . Wind turbines are designed to capture and convert wind energy into electricity, but they can only operate within a certain range of wind speeds. Strong winds also put America's growing fleet of wind turbines to the test.
