I noticed this in the press release from Audi today announcing that the e-tron is on sale across Europe.

To ensure that sustainability is not compromised during the at-home charging process, customers in Germany can switch to environmentally friendly electricity, known as Audi energy. With Audi energy, the A3 Sportback e-tron is totally emission-free when operated electrically. All electricity all comes from hydroelectric power stations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

How does that work?
 
Audi offers customers the opportunity to sign a contract with a green electricity provider, LichtBlick (bright spot), a supplier of green electricity (hydroelectric) in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, offering the possibility to obtain electricity without any emissions being generated (i.e. no nuclear, oil or coal).
