Create an action in Photoshop. Something like:

select all

copy

paste

delete background layer (now you have the image on its own layer, with no
background to muck things up)

select color range (just make sure the green is your foreground color),
sampled color - You'll probably want to play with the tolerance some.

delete

save as png



Then you can batch your images.
