"The most recent pulse from April shows that the world energy system is no longer fit for purpose," Wilkinson told CNBC's "Squawk Box Asia" Wednesday, in reference to the findings from her organization's Energy Pulse reports which offer snapshots of trends across the energy ecosystem. The council's most recent report forecasts that around half of the global energy system will still not be electrified by 2050, which would mark a blow to many governments' net-zero pledges. The report cited 64% of global energy leaders sharing their concerns.

"We need to get electrification going faster," said Angela Wilkinson, the secretary general and CEO of the London-based World Energy Council. Described by the International Energy Agency as a "versatile energy carrier," hydrogen has a diverse range of applications and can be used in a wide range of industries. One method of producing hydrogen involves electrolysis, a process through which an electric current splits water into oxygen and hydrogen. In looking at the overall picture, the World Energy Council's Wilkinson stressed there are no easy answers. "It's not that it's a simple issue of just swapping out one technology for another technology," she said.
