The Navajo Nation, spread throughout the beautiful states of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, is experiencing an incredible journey towards sustainable energy solutions. The Navajo’s use of solar energy is a shift that extends beyond economic empowerment and encompasses cultural preservation and protecting the environment. The Navajo find it important to provide power to their people and do so to approximately 34,000 remote off-grid tribal members. This is incredible because most reservations have issues with power, running water to drink or any system for sewage waste, heat, or electricity. Navajo reservations are in the high plains desert with numerous canyons. Since the Navajo live in harmony with the land and practice traditional economy, power is not the first thing on their minds.
