Basic Operating Programme
Explanation:
This is a legal programme set up to regulate the electrical energy market. In this market, electrical operators inform the market of their situation - generatolrs down, etc, and other operators offer energy to cover their shortfalls. There is, eg, interchage between France and Spain, as well as between Spanish operators. As far as I can tell, this is a purley Spanish system, so there doesn't seem to be any agreed translation in use in, eg, EU docs.
