How many watts of wind power does it take to turn a large wind turbine?

Wind power isn't measured in watts. It takes a certain amount of wind to spin the blades. They can turn the angle of the wind turbine blades to help catch the wind. I beileve the wind has to be at least 30km an hour but i could be wrong. There are lots of places to look that up on the internet. Wikipedia has a fairly good article on wind power. If the wind is going too fast, the often shut down the turbines because they are built to withstand a certain pressure. If the wind is too high (which sometimes happens in Southern Alberta, Canada), they risk destroying the turbines. Watts are a measure of electrical power, not wind power.
