Can Utilities Be Disconnected During the Summer For Nonpayment?

YES. Delaware DOES NOT have a blanket moratorium prohibiting utilities from disconnecting service for nonpayment during the summer. Delaware law provides temperature-based protections during June 1 through September 30 that temporarily prevent disconnections under certain conditions.

Note: In Delaware, electric and gas service cannot be disconnected for nonpayment on days when extreme heat is forecast. Specifically, if the 8:00 a.m. National Weather Service forecast predicts that the heat index will reach 95°F or higher in the county where the customer lives, the utility must postpone the scheduled disconnection. The disconnection may occur on a later day when the extreme heat conditions no longer exist.
