Not the power to make something from nothing like shifting or healing or telekinesis, or telepathy. But energetics and elementals are unique in the fact that they can pull from the things around them. Electricity is everywhere after all. It’s a naturally forming resource. So creating, or summoning becomes diverting. The core becomes a filter instead of a infinite well. Which allays a lot of the strain put on the core.
Latents are a mainly unknown group, little research has been done based purely on their scarcity. Latent energetics are even rarer. How the turning process affects latents  differently to regular empowered is still unknown.
Latents core’s clearly circulate and process magic differently than most, based on the theory posited by Vincent about Lovely’s distinct scent being a byproduct of their body being unable to flush out the excess magic leaving them with a constant pinhole leak of magic surrounding their aura. Therefore their body has an ability to retain magic for long periods of time. Based on the fact that we never got a mention of it we can assume that Lovelys scent never did fade like Vincent said it might, which means their body still had a back stock of magic reaching back to their teenage years when the block started. Being an incredibly powerful energetic we can think that the pure power circulating in their system for seven years wasn’t used up in the year(?) before they were turned. Further proof of residual magic stockpiles being their ability to continue fighting in the inversion despite winning silver in an event that requires a nuke of sheer power being let out mere moments before
