Thermophiles are bacteria that live in high temperature environments. Some have been found around deep sea vents (such as in the Indian ocean) and survive on the sulphur, hydrogen and carbon dioxide being released from the vents, thus making them independant from using any of the sun's energy.
Therefore these thermophiles are dependant on the Earth's inner structure and theoretically we couldn't have an Earth without a star such as our sun to revolve around. So indirectly these thermophiles still need the sun. However, their energy is not dependant on the sun > producer > consumer hierachy typically seen in energy flow diagrams.
