COPENHAGEN/LONDON (Reuters) - Danish wind turbine maker Vestas wrong-footed investors on Wednesday, announcing a bulging order book which underscored a western edge over China rivals and contrasted with solar two days after U.S.-based Evergreen Solar's bankruptcy filing.

The statement helped Vestas Wind Systems A/S shares bounce more than 20 percent from Tuesday's more than six-year low and buoyed the sector a week after it was depressed by a profit warning from Germany's Nordex SE.
