Canberrans embrace new cutting edge solar system in hopes of slashing energy bills

Retiree Eric Pulford is one of many Canberrans turning to a new home energy system that aims to slash about 60 per cent off annual energy bills.

Eric Pulford recently fitted out with solar panels
 and an accompanying battery that cost him no
more than $2 a day.
The best part? He says it will cost just a gold coin a day.

With soaring wholesale electricity prices and the prospect of a looming gas shortfall nationally next year, renewable energy proponents say individual consumers like Mr Pulford could play an increasingly important role as citizen investors.

"I say it is a little bit gold plated," Mr Pulford says of his $20,000 investment.
