Energy = Weaponry. I cant think of any situation where that is not the case.

Mechanical - Melee
Chemical - Bullet
Atomic/Nuclear - Nuke
Optic - Laser
Thermal - Steamships
Electrical - Taser


Solar could be and exception. I cant think of a single weapon in history that has been solar powered.....

That could be endemic to the human tendency to provide their own competition.
