Ok, so energy is pretty much useless now, so here are some ideas on how to make it useful again (also give us a mist tank, not the one that gives us 100 mist, i mean the thing to put mist in)
1: making minerals , pretty simple, 5 mist for 1 random mineral
2: making heat crystals, 10 for 1 *, 20 for 2*, 40 for 3*, 80 for 4*, and 100 for 5*. These would all have a 50% chance of succeeding
3: making sparks of life, 100 mist for a 33% chance of successfully making a spark of life

Energy can be used to buy Alchemy Orbs from the Supply Depot for the same price as they were before the patch; 800 for 3 Eternals, 400 for 3 Elites, so on so on. They are also still used for the basic things that energy used to be used for... Shadow Keys, Weapon and Trinket Slots, etc. If anything, the only thing we lost from the update is the fact that we now get FREE Alchemy instead of having to ALWAYS pay energy for it. You can also use Energy for the heat crystals that everyone now hates so much, so there's still that use as well. You can ALREADY buy Sparks of Life, 10 for 200 Energy as compared to 500 Energy for 10 revives. Energy still has an extremely large number of uses, you just never NEED to use any of them because they're not in the day-to-day-gameplay that you may have (I know I don't run a Shadow Lair every day). And the ones that ARE in your normal days are now able to be farmed. Energy is still extremely useful, it's just that you now have the option to get most of the old energy requirements for free, however rare they may be.
