Grasso Tech given rebate check for electricity savings
Groton — Ella T. Grasso Technical High School is saving electricity at its new school building, Groton Utilities announced.
The school building includes about 2,800 energy-efficient lighting features, and the school received a rebate check for $85,931 from Groton Utilities during a ceremony earlier this month, according to the utility.
