  I think the lack of interest in this post highlights part of the problem Howard, most people do not know about it or understand it. Personally I am very interested in The Green Deal as it includes replacement windows - and if Facelift uPVC cant benefit from that when my name is Mike Green I am really missing something!
  The idea is a very good one. You have an energy survey on your property and if, in 25 years or less, replacing your windows with modern energy efficient ones will save you more money than the cost of replacement, the green deal will pay for the work and then take it back off you through your enery bills out of the money you have saved - as far as you are concerned it has cost you nothing.
  The scheme covers insulation, new heating systems, lots of efficiency products and is available to anyone.
  The problem is it has been made overly complicated. You have to have a survey that covers all the potential improvements, but there are very few - if any companies that can do all of them. I do windows, but not a new boiler. I have a list of existing clients who are interested in the Green Deal because I have been discussing it since it was first suggested but cannot actually offer it to them myself yet because of the way it has been set up.
  I hope the slow take up leads to an improvement in the process and not to the scrapping of the scheme as it is fundementally a great idea.
