If the generator / alternator is of the permanent magnet type or has field windings.
.. and that's not what I'm referring to. Many models of wind turbine cannot "start" from stationary.. they draw power and act as a motor to get the blades moving. Only once they're up to a speed do they actually generate power.
Yes, wind turbines are a good thing in many ways, but to say that they have no emissions is totally and utterly wrong.
