Yes, an energy carrier is needed in the light-independent reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP and NADPH are produced as energy carriers. These molecules provide the necessary energy and reducing power to convert carbon dioxide into glucose during the light-independent reactions. Without ATP and NADPH, the Calvin cycle would not be able to proceed effectively.
