"Since Krishna is said to be the source of all energy in the universe, would that mean He is also present in electricity, which powers so much of our world today?"

Hare Krishna,
Electricity is made from?
water, wind and whatelse? coal and natural gas?
all of these are not man made? YES OR NO?
They are some renewable and some non renewable among them? YES
Water is renewable ( I am assuming that you know what is renewable)
Who made water?
who made wind? simply put Bhagawan.
But we made electricity making use of the natural resources.
Electicity is even generated by clouds.
Lightening is a form of electricity which is naturally occuring. Lightening or thunderboldt is the weapon of Indra. Indra sends us rain and we make electricity collecting the rain water.
But Indra demigod is under the control of ? BHAGAWAN ( Lord Sri Krishna)
All demigods with powers are granted powers by Lord to operate the material world.
They are working for Krishna.
Krishna is the All powerful and the demigods are delegated powers to operate the mateiral world. The energy or power that is coming which is used by us to make our homes light up is indeed Sri Krishna's external energy.
That which facilitates us to make our livelihood possible on this planet Earth is Maya Devi the Jailor.
Lord Shiva is the head of all demigods and Maya devi his wife is running this mateiral world providing us power and electricity to run our lives smootly. We are in a jail but still the Inmates of jail have some basic facilities. ( air, water, sunlight, electricity etc etc.).
So yes, the main transformer electricity generator is Krishna but the electricity distribution board is operated by Mayadevi.
Hare Krishna
If mayadevi is electric board and transformer is Kṛṣṇa which generates electricity. So, who is energy?
Hare Krsna Prabhu
A transformer does not generate electricity. It simply steps up or down the Voltage of the system.
You may be familiar with the first law of Thermodynamics
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can simply convert from one form to another.
Thermal, hydel or even nuclear Energy is converted into electricity at the generating station. It is never created.
This energy can be said to be shakti. However, Lord Krsna is Shaktiman or the complete possessor of all energies. Parasya shaktir vividhaiva sruyate. The Lord has multifarious energies. These energies have been categorised in 9 divisions of which maya shakti is just one. All energies have been analysed in these divisions and with a systematic reading of Srimad Bhagavatam you can understand all this.

Hare Krsna
In Goloka there is no need for sunshine, moonlight, fire and electricity. It means electricity is just a manifestation of Krsna's energies and He is not personally present in electricity.
