The materials that are needed to build a wind turbine are quite basic. You need some PVC sheets, glue (*preferably white*), screws, washers, dowels, magnets, and wire. Its quite simple.
ADDED: Note the question does not cover application, just the turbine, though that answer seems to assume it is to rotate an electrical generator. It would also help to have at least some understanding of how to design turbines (and alternators?), and then the tools and skills to cut, shape and join those materials to obtain the desired result. Good Luck though - it would be an interesting, and if successful, satisfying project!

Newer blades are made of aluminum and composite materials
To generate wind electricity, essential materials include wind turbines, which consist of components like blades, a rotor, a generator, and a tower. Additionally, materials such as steel and fiberglass are used for the turbine structure, while copper is needed for electrical wiring. Concrete is often used for the foundation, and various control systems and inverters may utilize electronic components and materials. These combined elements work together to convert wind energy into electrical power.

You will need something tall to mount your turbine, propellers, a generator (if you're using it to make electricity), the land, and any other small pieces to hold your turbine together.

Websites or specialist groups focused on renewable energy resources are great for connecting you with people who have already had experience with wind turbines and you can learn a lot from their trials and errors! For a faster approach, there are videos on Youtube that offer various solutions on how to build a wind turbine.
Wind turbine blades are typically made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic or carbon fiber composites. These materials are chosen for their strength, durability, and light weight to maximize the efficiency of the wind turbine.
