What does chemical engineering have to do with alternative energy?

what exactly do chemical engineers do when trying to process or store solar, or any kind of energy?

The one drawback to alternative energies like solar and wind is that they are not constant. There needs to be a way to store up excess energy for those times when the wind isn’t blowing and/or the sun isn’t shining.

The biggest task facing chemical engineers is creating large scale batteries to store the energy. Chemical engineers, as opposed to chemists, are specialists at taking chemical reactions and processes and scaling them up for industrial usage.
