gCv

GCV is an acronym used in different fields, with no single universally accepted meaning. Depending on the domain, GCV can refer to military, energy, or corporate information platforms.

Ground Combat Vehicle (GCV) was a United States Army program proposed in the early 2010s to develop a new family of armored fighting vehicles intended to replace older platforms such as the M2 Bradley. The program emphasized protection, mobility, and firepower, and was canceled before a production contract was awarded.

Gross Calorific Value (GCV) is a term used in fuel and energy engineering to denote the total amount of heat released during combustion, including the latent heat of vaporization of water. It is used alongside Net Calorific Value (NCV); NCV is GCV minus the energy needed to vaporize absorbed water. The choice between GCV and NCV affects energy pricing and boiler efficiency calculations.

Global Corporate Venturing (GCV) is a media and events brand focused on corporate venture capital activity, investments by large corporations in startups, and related strategic partnerships. It provides news, analysis, and industry insights for corporate venture teams and startups.

Because GCV is an acronym with multiple meanings, its intended interpretation should be inferred from context, as other fields may use GCV for different terms.
