Under a voluntary program called GreenCurrents, DTE Energy's residential and business electric customers can choose to "green up" their power with renewable energy created from the wind, sun, water, biomass and other environmentally friendly sources.
For $2.50 a month, residential customers can purchase a block of 100 kilowatt hours of renewable energy, 15 to 20 percent of a typical home's monthly electric usage.
Customers can also choose to match 100 percent of their home's electricity consumption with renewable resources for an additional cost of two cents per kilowatt-hour -- $10 to $15 per month for a typical household.
Business customers can purchase a 1,000 kilowatt hour block of green energy for $20 a month -- or match all of their electricity usage with renewable power for an additional cost of two cents per kilowatt hour.
