An Act amending Title 66 (Public Utilities) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in restructuring of electric utility industry, further providing for duties of electric distribution companies.
Laid on the table
Summary
The bill adds a new duty for electric distribution companies: when a customer’s fixed‑term contract with a generation supplier ends and the customer does not actively renew, the supplier must automatically return the customer to the default service provider at the default rate. It also sets notice requirements, refunds, fines and possible license loss for suppliers that fail to follow the rule. The changes aim to protect consumers from being stuck in unwanted contracts and to ensure clear pricing information.
