You must distinguish here between the "input" and the "output" energy. The input energy is often electrical energy, but it can also be chemical energy stored in some derivative of petroleum, for example, such as kerosene. That depends on the type of lamp. The intended output energy, of course, is light, but all lamps produce smaller or larger amounts of heat energy, and in some cases, some noise (sound energy).
