As a leader in the European data centre industry, we strive to set an example of environmental responsibility. In addition to innovations in engineering and diligent operations for maximising energy efficiency, Interxion supports and consumes energy from sustainable and low carbon sources to the greatest practical extent in our markets of operation. A large proportion of our power comes from sustainable sources, including water, solar and wind.
A large proportion is a bit vague, and not the same as 100%.
If they're part of the same group, as Digital Realty, they should have these numbers as DR's report includes total powered used, vs total power from renewable sources, and there are clear ways to confirm this if true.

We’re now 100% powered by renewable and sustainable energy which is great in further minimizing our impact on the planet. Plausible Analytics script weights less than 1 KB which is more than 45 times smaller than the recommended Google Analytics Global Site Tag implementation.
After speaking to the folks at Plausible they pointed me to this page on the digital ocean community forums:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/what-kind-of-electricity-do-you-run-on
And this one here:

The TLDR version is that the servers they are using are run by Digital Ocean, who lease from Interxion, who source the power for the datacentre from renewables.
Interxion themselves are owned by Digital Realty, who do release figures, but not at a granularity to confirm.
Once there is info from Interxion, it's possible to confirm this.
