Abstract
Many Navajo Tribal members, some 13,000 households, living on the Nation's reservation still lack access to electricity services. These Navajo households make up most of the 17,000 native American tribal homes without electricity, according to the US Department of Energy's Office of Indian Affairs. Want of electricity harms public health, education, and economic development outcomes.
