What is the role of energy in sublimation?

Any change of state (a.k.a. change of phase) involves a transfer of energy. The case of sublimation is similar to the evaporation of liquids: you have to input energy to turn the solid into a gas; you get energy back if the process occurs in the opposite direction (from gas to solid).
