This is how it all works though. A recent example: California is implementing a plan to bulk buy heat pumps. All of it is designed to transfer taxpayer money to some 1%'ers pocket.

I heard about this but could you elaborate? From the outside it seems like a nice idea to cut costs

He is simply incorrect.
A non-profit teamed up with a heat-pump installation marketplace (VoltHub) and a heat-pump contractor to put together a group buy. No money comes from the government. It's just some folks teaming up to help buyers get leverage on manufacturers, and save 10-20%.
For those about to ask the obvious question, the company that built the plant that charged half a billion dollars in exchange for not much of anything at all donates between $3 and $5 million per year, more or less evenly split across parties but slightly favoring republicans.
