Gore: "100% of the electricity that I use comes from solar and wind"; the global scientific community is "nearly unanimous" on climate science

Al Gore's New Climate Campaign Faces Uphill Battle

From the 9-minute video at the bottom of the page above:

At the 3-minute mark, Gore is asked about his mansions and jet-setting around the globe.   Gore says: "100% of the electricity that I use comes from solar and wind...I don't OWN a private jet."

At the 4:38 mark: Gore says: "Are we going to listen to the global scientific community, nearly unanimous, or to Rush Limbaugh, the Koch brothers, Exxon Mobil, Glenn Beck..."

Is it true that 100% of the electricity Gore uses is from solar and wind? I'm familiar with the areas in which he has homes and I can say with a reasonable amount of certainty that his neighbors can't claim 100% of their electricity comes from wind or solar. How is he able to separate his own properties from everyone else on the same grid? And if he's just blowing smoke, why doesn't anyone seriously call him on it?
