CC.TT. Bicombustibles
Spanish to English
Science
Energy / Power Generation
fuels
Full sentence from an oil company's management report: "El volumen de gas suministrado fue de 0.3 bcm para el consumo de CC.TT. Bicombustibles."
I think "CC.TT." means "centrales térmicas" (power stations) and Eurodicautom says "bicombustible" means "bi-propellant" but there's no such thing as a "bi-propellant power station" as far as I'm aware. Might "bicombustible" be a typo? Should it be "biocombustible" (biofuel)? "Biofuel power plants" sounds a bit more feasible but then again do they run on gas? Hmm, I'm confused. Would appreciate any suggestions.
