Each $4 tax-deductible contribution is received from voluntary PaCE participants.
The host electric utility receives and transfers the entire $4 contribution to PaCE.
PaCE retains $1 for its services; $3 is allocated to fund renewable energy premiums to renewable generators that supply 100 kilowatt-hours of renewable energy into the state's power grid.
One block of green power is the equivalent of approximately 10 percent of an average home's monthly usage.
In addition to monthly installments, customers can make one-time, tax-deductible contributions.
