The "one-electron contribution" is the kinetic + pseudopotential energy.
Explanations hidden in this comment at line 524 of electrons.90:
! ... eband = \sum_v \epsilon_v is calculated by sum_band
! ... deband = - \sum_v <\psi_v | V_h + V_xc |\psi_v>
! ... eband + deband = \sum_v <\psi_v | T + Vion |\psi_v>
