The reality is, to get renewables to scale we&#8217;re going to have to have other clean energy friends in the mix, we&#8217;re going to have to build multiple clean energy bridges.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re going to have to have hydrogen [doing the] lifting, we&#8217;re going to have to have gas with CCUS [carbon capture, utilization and storage] lifting, we&#8217;re going to have to have grid strengthening going on,&#8221; Wilkinson said.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of using gas as a &#8220;transition&#8221; fuel that would bridge the gap between a world dominated by fossil fuels to one where renewables are in the majority is not a new one and has been the source of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2022\/01\/05\/climate-eu-backlash-over-plans-to-label-nuclear-and-gas-as-green.html\">heated debate<\/a> for a while now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"ArticleBody-subtitle\"><a id=\"headline0\"\/>Is hydrogen the answer?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>In recent years, hydrogen has been touted as a potentially crucial tool in the shift to a net-zero future.<\/p>\n<p>Described by the International Energy Agency as a &#8220;versatile energy carrier,&#8221; hydrogen has a diverse range of applications and can be used in a wide range of industries.<\/p>\n<p>One method of producing hydrogen involves electrolysis, a process through which an electric current splits water into oxygen and hydrogen.<\/p>\n<p>Some call the resulting hydrogen &#8220;green&#8221; or &#8220;renewable&#8221; if the electricity used in the electrolysis process comes from renewable energy installations like wind or solar farms.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past few years, major economies and businesses have looked to the emerging green hydrogen sector to decarbonize industries integral to modern life, although the vast majority of hydrogen generation today is still based on fossil fuels.<\/p>\n<p>In looking at the overall picture, the World Energy Council&#8217;s Wilkinson stressed there are no easy answers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not that it&#8217;s a simple issue of just swapping out one technology for another technology,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It&#8217;s a much more complex challenge than that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"ArticleBody-subtitle\"><a id=\"headline1\"\/>IPCC concerns<\/h2>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>In March, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change published a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2023\/03\/20\/ipcc-report-on-climate-un-scientists-call-for-course-correction.html\">major report<\/a> stressing the need for urgent action, with the U.N. secretary general describing it as a &#8220;survival guide for humanity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/press.un.org\/en\/2023\/sgsm21730.doc.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">In a statement<\/a>, Antonio Guterres said the report represented a &#8220;clarion call to massively fast-track climate efforts by every country and every sector and on every timeframe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"Placeholder-ArticleBody-Video-107216072\">\n<div role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" id=\"Placeholder-ArticleBody-Video-107216072\" class=\"PlaceHolder-wrapper\" data-vilynx-id=\"7000292028\" data-test=\"VideoPlaceHolder\">\n<div class=\"InlineVideo-videoEmbed\" id=\"InlineVideo-0\" data-test=\"InlineVideo\">\n<div class=\"InlineVideo-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"InlineVideo-inlineThumbnailContainer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"InlineVideo-videoThumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.businesstelegraph.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1680504977_527_Green-transition-won039t-be-perfect-and-we039ll-need-natural-gas.jpeg\" alt=\"IPCC report is 'sobering,' World Energy Council CEO says\"\/><span class=\"InlineVideo-videoButton\"\/><span\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Those findings loomed large over CNBC&#8217;s discussion.
