I'm not sure I agree really. If their plan was economic stimulus they could have introduced a far more competitive environment for suppliers and a much lower hurdle for consumers. What they have created is a marketplace that benefits only a few suppliers and holds no challenge to pricing. It's a racket.

We were looking at the same, as it's the only thing we'd be eligible for. In a pretty typical fashion to most people I assume, we've scrapped it as the energy savings wouldn't have paid for themselves.
But you do also have to be realistic and understand this stuff is in part an economic stimulus, so the government isn't too fuss who pockets the cash, home owners or business. And there's an argument to say that taxed business income would be a cheaper subsidy.
