Navajo Power is a Public Benefit Corporation that develops utility-scale clean energy projects on tribal lands, and maximizes the economic benefits for local communities.
Their Phase I mission is to cultivate an economic upgrade from coal to renewables for Navajo through developing gigawatts (GWs) of solar and storage projects as the imminent closure of local coal plants accelerates. In Phase II, they plan to expand their model with Navajo, and deploy a replication strategy with tribes in the Southwest and beyond.
