It depends upon power of phosphorescent light. The power determines energy consumption.
15 watts.
In a house, usually 100 watts approx
Not much work at all, just go to the switch and flip it up. As for how much energy does it take, that is a different matter.
light energy
they take the waves of energy from light and run the waves though a energy transporter then therefor you have energy

Light
The light dependent reactions take in the light energy and convert that to chemical energy, but it is in the Calvin cycle (light independent reactions) where the chemical energy is stored in a complex sugar.
mechanical to electrical to light energy
They are sort of related; however, glow in the dark materials are actually referred to as phosphorescent. The whole idea behind photoluminescence is that a material absorbs radiation (light) and then re-emits it. Phosphorescent materials absorb light, but release it at a much slower rate. Therefore, they absorb light when they are exposed to it, and then continue releasing it after the light source is removed. Fluorescence, on the other hand, is a material that that absorbs ultraviolet radiation (such as light from a black light) and then releases visible light.
The amount of electrical energy it uses in a fixed time is the power, measured in watts, that should be marked on the light bulb when it's bought.
Yes energy is needed for photosynthesis and plants use light energy which they get from solar radiation.
