Dinuba Saves 38%
The City of Dinuba in the San Joaquin Valley is saving 38% on its
electricity bill for City Hall by taking simple no-cost measures,
according to Dan Meinert, Dinuba's community development director.
The City turned off hallway lights, raised the thermostat to 78Á
and shut off one bank of overhead fluorescent lights.
