The Starfield Alternating Currents Louisa and Zoe choice sees you siding with either the Trade Authority or with MAST after running around the Well setting junction boxes. When you first meet Louisa Reyez in The Well, you'll need to use your Starfield scanner to help her fix a power drain, though this eventually leads you to Zoe Kaminski from the Trade Authority and, ultimately, the discovery of a bank hacking robbery. You've got to decide who you give the information to, so I've covered both outcomes, having tried them both, for the Starfield Alternating Currents mission.
Should you choose Louisa or Zoe in Alternating Currents?
Both parties want the information you discover exclusively in the Starfield Alternating Currents mission, forcing you to chose between Louisa Reyez and Zoe Kaminski. However, the thing is your choice doesn't matter. Whoever you chose at the end, you'll get a thank you and 2000 credits.
If there's any follow up after this I've yet to see it. I completed Alternating Currents about seven hours into Starfield, and have returned a few times to see if there's any more but so far, some 70 hours later, there's no consequence that I can see. It's possible there might be something after completing a later mission I haven't got to yet, so if that happens I'll update this.
