Prohibits termination of electricity or heat service during forecasts of extreme temperatures

This bill prevents electricity and heat providers from cutting off service to residential customers when extreme temperatures are forecast, specifically when the heat index reaches 95 degrees or higher or when temperatures drop to 32 degrees or lower. Under the new rules, utilities cannot turn off service on the day such a forecast is issued or on any subsequent days that fall on a holiday or weekend. The legislation also requires providers to continue service for vulnerable individuals who cannot manage their own resources due to mental or physical limitations, with any doubts about eligibility resolved in favor of keeping the service on.
