    Well, it's up on top of a pole or pedestal of some sort,

    so it has some gravitational potential energy relative to

    the ground. In other words, if it somehow became detached

    from its structure and fell to the ground, it would make quite

    an energetic splat when it got there.

    Also, the windmill is at the temperature of the air around it,

    which is far from Absolute Zero, so the windmill holds a lot of

    thermal (heat) energy.

    Then I guess there's the matter of the chemical energy in the

    molecules of the material that the windmill is made of, and the

    nuclear energy in its atoms.
