How much more would you pay for green power?

If your Utility company offered you “green power” at a premium, what percentage extra would you agree to pay on each bill? This money would support solar, wind, hydrogen, tidal and geothermal power generation.

Not a single cent more because the total cost of building and running a power station (for example 50 years) makes the total costed factor per kilowatt of power the same whether it be generated by coal, gas, nuclear, solar, wind, hydrogen, tidal or geothermal generation. It’s the warm fuzzy feeling one gets from the latter generating methods that makes us feel good about reducing global warming (for which I am all for) and about not paying more for the same generated electricity.
before i moved, i paid about 20% extra to get green power offsets for my power use
I would pay 10% more not to have green power and I reckon in 10 years I would 40% in front of green power extra cost and environmental damage
