Etymology
Romanian borrowed "energie" from French "énergie" in the 19th century, part of a wave of French vocabulary that modernized Romanian. The French word traces to Greek "energeia", built from "en-" (in) and "ergon" (work). The original Greek sense was closer to "activity" or "being at work" before it narrowed to the physical and figurative senses used today.
