Denmark's Vestas, the world's biggest maker of wind turbines, said it had won an order for 20 turbines with total capacity of 40 megawatts from China Datang Renewable Power Co Ltd.

The V90-2.0 MW turbines will be installed in Zhaolitouzi, Liaoning Province, Vestas said in a statement.

It did not disclose the value of the order.

Vestas cited figures from consultants Azure International showing that China had total installed wind power capacity of about 15.5 gigawatts as of June 2009 and said China was the world's fastest-growing wind energy market in 2009.
