In addition to the cost savings you've enjoyed since upgrading, you will also pay less in carbon tax. I agree it sucks whenever a non-retroactive incentive program suddenly exists after you've already bought stuff, though.
This thread is a bit of scary example of the post-truth world we are living in. I admittedly haven't looked very hard (beyond searching the RFP links), but I haven't seen any concrete evidence to the 'ecofitt branded' products being mandated in the RFP (though it's been repeated as truth dozens of times). I don't doubt it may be true, but would anyone care to back up the claim?
FWIW I don't hate the carbon tax, but I'm also not a fan of how this program appears to be rolled out.
