Queenslanders will get a $1,000 energy bill rebate, paid for by coal royalties.
Premier Steven Miles and Treasurer Cameron Dick announced the $2.5bn payment on Thursday.
The upfront, per-household cash splash will be applied from July 1, and the Premier says it means people won't pay a cent for electricity for the first three months of the financial year.
'We are delivering the biggest cost-of-living relief package in Queensland history to back Queenslanders in the fight against inflation,' Mr Miles said.
The Queensland government paid a $550 power bill rebate this financial year, plus $325 off bills for small businesses.
