The City of Visalia, located in California’s Tulare County, has been a member of the VIEW (Valley Innovative Energy Watch) Partnership since 2010. As a highly involved member of VIEW, the City has shown its dedication to becoming an energy efficient municipality by applying for and completing several projects and retrofits over the years. The City has also, with the help of VIEW, benchmarked all of its municipal utility accounts and launched a pilot program, Battle of the Buildings, to reduce energy usage in all municipal facilities.
