Mech engg deals quite a lot with energy. They're the people who deal with the thermodynamics and stuff, and actually deal with the actual generator which generates the electricity.

Yeah electrical engineering is very broad and to help solve an energy crisis you would want to be proficient in communication with other engineers (you'll communicate with other engineers from electrical, mechanical and materials science mainly). Don't worry though, after a while you'll gain enough experience as an engineer and be able to tackle larger scale problems with others.
