DTE seeks OK to offer green power

DETROIT, MICHIGAN - DTE Energy wants to start offering its residential customers the option of purchasing so-called green power, to increase the use of renewable fuels in Michigan.

The state's largest utility filed the proposal Friday with the Michigan Public Service Commission.

The GreenCurrents program would require a customer to pay a $2.50 monthly premium for the right to buy 100 kilowatt hours of electricity from renewable sources. One hundred kilowatt hours represents 15%-20% of typical monthly usage for a DTE residential customer.

Residential customers could also elect to have all their electricity provided from renewable resources for an additional $10 to $15 a month.

"This voluntary program... will give our customers the ability to choose power created from wind, sun, water, biomass and other environmentally friendly sources," said Trevor Lauer, vice president of retail marketing for DTE. "For just a few dollars a month, customers can help influence the future of sustainable energy in Michigan."
