In West Virginia, utility companies can shut off electricity during winter months, but there are specific protections in place. The state has a winter moratorium, which typically prevents disconnections from December 1 to March 15 for residential customers who meet certain criteria, such as having a documented medical condition. However, if customers do not meet these criteria or fail to pay their bills, disconnections may still occur. It's always best to communicate with the utility provider if you're facing difficulties.
