What Does CC Stand For?

CC stands for Combined Cycle

CC, or Combined Cycle, is a technology used in power generation that improves efficiency by combining two thermodynamic cycles. It typically involves a gas turbine generating electricity while utilizing the waste heat from the turbine to produce steam, which then drives a steam turbine for additional power generation. This integrated approach enhances overall energy output and reduces fuel consumption, making it a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution in the energy sector.
