That's not how the system works. The money will come from a stealth tax
on everyone else's energy bills in the same way that pays subsidies for

Loans, equity grab and grants have been regular policy tools used to
encourage various government heating and insulation schemes.

I'd expect a bump in direct fuel tax in the not too distant future.
