AN ACT CONCERNING BILLING FOR ELECTRICITY AT CUSTOMERS' FORMER PREMISES.
HB 5936 prohibits electric distribution companies from billing residential or business customers for electricity service after they no longer occupy a property. It directly affects former homeowners and tenants who have sold their property or moved out. The bill requires companies to stop billing immediately upon receiving notice of the change in occupancy. This prevents customers from being charged for service they no longer use at a former address.
