Scams (?) Trap and grants, real experiences

Hello,
To follow up on the subject of Christophe on fiscal control following subsidies.
I open this little subject to discuss the arnarchs of renewable energy subsidies.
Scams from manufacturers and installers (who overcharge) and successive governments (who give with one hand to take back with the other).
To begin my little experience of two professional quotes for a simple installation of solar hot water.
a) 4500 euros and 5000 euros, for two sensors total 4m2, a balloon of 200 liters 3 meters back and forth of pipes, and the small devices to rotate all this.
b) I made myself and that cost me 1000 euros all included.
I easily noticed that the terms solar + subsidy (or tax credit if you prefer) double or even see all the prices.
I hope I am not alone in having this kind of experience.
I didn't get ripped off, but how many people got ripped off.
Talk about your experiences here, so maybe other people don't have this.
