But life on the Navajo Nation is hard. The vast landscape is dotted with old-fashioned windmills, and many places are untouched by modern conveniences like electricity. A new technology, developed in partnership with Sandia National Laboratories and New Mexico State University, is transforming that struggle into a sustainable solution.
