Dale represents farm, small business and residential energy consumers on utility advisory boards focusing on demand side management/energy efficiency. He has served on local, state and national working groups focusing on technical evaluation, education/outreach, and community planning, all dealing with energy. He has served on task forces leading to creation of Ohio's Advanced Energy Initiative as detailed in SB 221, and utility scale wind farm siting guidelines created in response to HB 562.s.
