IMO Wind is a very good starting power source. Compare the crafting requirements of the windmill and solar panel. The windmill doesn't even need a circuit block, the solar generator needs two. I know the higher level solar generators kick its ass but to make an MV solar you need to think in terms of whole stacks of supplies e.g. 4 stacks of iron ore for the machine blocks, 6 stacks of redstone etc. Even making a LV solar is a bit of a grind for a beginner, particularly if they don't have automatic mining yet.
