How to turn on wind generators? To power chem extractors

[stebbins99]

Hello everyone! I am trying to gather "inorganic" supplies (ie non-scout supplies) to create stimpacks and such. I have purchased two wind generators and a number of other factories (chemical extractor, flora thing, water extractor, etc). I am not able to "turn on" the wind generators despite having plenty of $ in the generator's maintenance accounts. Am I missing something? Do I need a skill/cert to turn these on? Any help would be appreciated, I am just trying to get some inorganic supplies going. Thanks!

Where you have placed the wind generator have you surveyed to ensure there is wind power there?

If so have you clicked on the relevant resource before starting it?
