Alexander performed the techno-economic optimizations and microgrid simulations required to size the components of the first utility-owned stand-alone power systems deployed in the US as a permanent generation solution. This remote grid was built and installed by BoxPower for PG&E and currently replaces the overhead distribution power lines that once served a handful of customers in a High Fire-Threat District (HFTD) area of the Sierra Nevada foothills outside Yosemite National Park.

Alexander currently leads the software and application engineering team at BoxPower and has been pivotal in the development of EASI - Boxpower's Energy Audit & System Optimization Software. This is a cloud-based tool designed to streamline the engineering and financial feasibility analysis performed by utilities and EPCs to explore remote grids. EASI is currently being used in the design of remote grids for utilities in California. Alexander is from Ghana and has a background in electrical engineering from Princeton University, where he wrote his thesis on an open-source microgrid design software he develop
