No, theres no particular individual characteristic you can trace back to a source of power. In fact, by the electricity gets to you it will be "mixed up" from several sources.
Think of a water analogy of several rivers feeding into a large pool. You take a drink from the pool and you don't know which river it came from. It will be a mixture from several.
In fact "pool" is the term the electricity managers use to buy and sell power on the energy market.

Yes it is. You check the date on the particular electron you are interested in. EU directives state that each electron be stamped before transmission.
