Southeast Queensland households and small businesses are set to get a bigger rebate on their electricity bills than the $175 they got this year.
The Australian Energy Regulator is considering allowing electricity retailers to hike annual residential power bills by $321 to $1941 and small business bills by $669 to $4115 in the state's southeast from next financial year.
The regulator's draft determination would also allow retailers to hike bills by $383 to $2344 for households in the region with separate meters for appliances such as hot water storage systems.
