Danish wind-turbine giant Vestas has received an order for delivery of 148.5 megawatts to wind energy projects in Mexico, the company said Friday.

The order is placed by the Special Purchase Vehicles Eólica Tres Mesas and Eólica Tres Mesas 2 and entails delivery of 45 wind-turbines of the V117-3.3 megawatt type, Vestas said in a press statement.
