This physical reliance is very important to make stories more immersive, that's notably was my character/power mostly relies on tangible references mankind is very familiar with (absorption, memorization, replication, data, template, conversion, transformation, etc.), only the source reaching the most transcendent level possible, in order to ensure the ability's completeness beyond any reasonable doubt.

Supernatural versions of energy certainly permeate many exotic realities, quite a few even directly run on it. But there may be just as many where "energy" is simply absent, notably conceptual ones operating under completely different paradigms, where things may happen out of pure randomness, without any qantifiable factor directing their course.

Eldritch realms may have their own version of energy, and merely follow twisted variants of our reality's pattern. But they may as well follow totally unrelated ones, or even none at all. Energy is a reliable reference to induce an immersive touch of realism to stories, but nothing can reasonably guaranty its rule in every single reality.

"Omniverse" being defined as the composite manifestation of every single possibly, there's bound to be countless realities not abiding by your energetic paradigm.
