CCGT plants are added as OCGT (at least in Spain) #1042

Power plants initially added to the net show ~25 GW of OCGT in Spain, while all of them are actually CCGT (also in the powerplants.csv file).

The problem could be that the dictionary "carrier_dict" is associating "natural gas" with "OCGT".

In powerplants.csv file, the information corresponding to Spanish CCGT shows "Fueltype: Natural Gas" and "Technology: CCGT".
