No. Lighting is not the source, lightning is multiple types of energy. At first lightning is electric but when it strikes the energy converts its self into light and heat in which the lightning becomes visible. There is a law of energy stating that: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed in form. Some various forms of energy might be chemical, nuclear, electrical, mechanical, heat, and waves/radiation (light). Lightning does not create energy, it simply transforms its type of energy and transfers it to another object, whether that object be air, a cloud, ground etc.

lightning
Can electrical energy be converted into light and heat energy?
Yes. Consider lightning, or light bulbs.
Is lightning an example of electrical energy?
Short Answer: Yes! But it is also light energy.
Can matter receive energy?
Energy, such as light, are not matter since they cannot be touched or felt.
