Queensland's energy minister has denied publicly owned electricity generators are overbidding in the wholesale power market and driving up prices for consumers.
Household and business electricity bills will surge at least nine per cent across Queensland, with businesses in the southeast set to cop a 19.8 per cent rise in 2022/23.
Retail bills are rising on the back of wholesale electricity prices quadrupling to $171 per megawatt hour in the year to March.
