The windmill will start at a wind speed of about 7 m/s. The pressure in the RO system is of course low when starting the high-pressure pump and the energy recovery system will not recover energy yet. When the windmill slows down it will stop at a wind speed of about 5 m/s because then the energy recovery system will still be function- ing.
