Any moving fluid can power a turbine. This includes air, water, steam, burning fuel etc.
When the fluid strikes the blades of the turbime it transfers energy to the blade causing the blade to move.
The device that supplies mechanical energy to turn the armature of a generator is called a prime mover. Examples of prime movers include steam turbines, gas turbines, and diesel engines.
The mechanical energy of wind pushes on the blades, turning them (still mechanical energy) turning blades turn the generator (still mechanical) The generator changes mechanical energy to electrical energy.
C. Generator and motor. In case of generator mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy But in motor, electrical energy is changed into mechanical energy.
A device that supplies electrical energy is called a power source or a generator. It converts other forms of energy, such as mechanical or chemical, into electrical energy.
Assuming that you're talking about a wind-powered electrical generator (such as a "wind farm"), the energy conversion is from mechanical to electrical. When the wind blows on the blades of the mill it rotates them, creating mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is used to power the electrical generator inside the mill, creating electrical energy out of mechanical energy.
By help of prime mover which supplies the mechanical energy to the shaft of generator(in case of dc generators).

Motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy
A generator changes mechanical energy into electrical energy.
with a generator.
Generator
Motor is device which converts electrical energy to mechanical energy,where as generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy
A generator is a device which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
A generator transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy.
