Page: Feed: --- ## [Coffee to Go](https://rr.co/2026/06/coffee-to-go) _2026-06-01 · Randy Reddig_ Camping with cappuccinos ain’t half bad. Thanks to Rocket for the espresso machine, Option-O for the grinder, Rivian for the power, Minor Figures for the milk, and Linea for the beans. ## [Faster than Luce](https://rr.co/2026/05/faster-than-luce) _2026-05-27 · Randy Reddig_ The Internet reacted faster than light to Ferrari’s debut of their first EV, the Luce . With a track record of shipping controversial designs and road cars without V-12s , Ferrari knows exactly who they are—the exclusive purveyor of a driving experience packaged by Jony Ive . The other N of 1 established: the only EV with a prancing horse, the only Ferrari that seats 5. What hasn’t changed:… ## [With a little help from my friends](https://rr.co/2026/05/with-a-little-help-from-my-friends) _2026-05-21 · Randy Reddig_ This website has existed in various forms for over 25 years . Earlier this week, with the help of Claude , I ported it from Jekyll on Heroku , to Hugo on GitHub Pages , and eventually to a simple container on Fly.io (hi Kurt!). The last time I overhauled it was 2014, from a lodge in New Zealand . With Claude, I explored a few dozen decision trees, tradeoffs on hosting, exploring costs and… ## [Flowbased: AHC parallel run first quick look](https://boerman.dev/posts/flowbased/ahc_first_look/) _2026-04-29 · Blog Frank Boerman_ After 2 cancelled days the Advanced Hybrid Coupling external parallel run finally started on business day 2026-04-17! I have been involved in the AHC project for a while now, so that was a pretty nice milestone! The next step is the actual go-live, currently foreseen for businessday the 11th of June, so not far off! In this post I wanted to take a quick look at the first couple of days of… ## [Flowbased: an update on export restrictions of France](https://boerman.dev/posts/flowbased/highfuaf2026/) _2026-03-11 · Blog Frank Boerman_ Last year I wrote about fluctuations in the market and the effects on grid constraints. In summary due to increased exports from France to Italy North, the French TSO RTE introduced new Flowbased constraints. These then limit the French export possibilities towards the Core region. These limits follow from forecasted flows from France to Italy North, the so called Fuaf . We are now a year… ## [Using my new datalake in practise: a case study](https://boerman.dev/posts/amunanalytics/datalakeintro/) _2026-01-12 · Blog Frank Boerman_ I have received many requests over the years for people wanting to use my private databases. I have always wanted to open it up but, until recently, never got around to setting up proper security and organisation. Now I have and my new Amun Analytics Datalake is live in beta mode ! You can register and login through the new Amun Single Sign On. After this you need to contact me through email… ## [Flowbased Tutorial: CNECs and Active Constraints and how to analyse them](https://boerman.dev/posts/flowbased/whatis/cnecs_and_activeconstraints/) _2025-11-18 · Blog Frank Boerman_ The flowbased capacity calculation system as a whole, and the domain specifically, can be pretty daunting to people who are just learning about it. Today I wanted to give a short introduction on some key concepts. Next to that I will present some analysis methods of the active constraints. Please note that I will assume some basic linear algebra optimization knowledge throughout this post.… ## [Flowbased IDCC: parallel run of IDCC(c)](https://boerman.dev/posts/flowbased/idcc_c_golive/) _2025-06-24 · Blog Frank Boerman_ On the 25th of June, the new Core IDCC(c) capacity calculation will go live. This is the third of a total of five planned Core capacity calculations in the intraday timeframe. For each of these updates, the capacities will be recalculated with updated forecasts and will take into account the trades up until the point of (re)calculation. In this post, I present an overview of the intraday… ## [Flowbased: how the markets can fluctuate, 2025 Q1 vs 2024 Q1](https://boerman.dev/posts/flowbased/highfuaf2025/) _2025-03-31 · Blog Frank Boerman_ Summary One of the (many) things that keeps my work interesting is that the system I work on is very dynamic. Today I want to highlight one such dynamic situation by comparing the first quarter of 2025 with the first quarter of 2024. Here we will see that the grid constraints that limit the market have shifted from one TSO to another due to changing grid situation. RTE (TSO of France)…
