Is the energy in our bulbs, fluorescent and/or incadescent, the same energy as in sunlight?

No. Sunlight has a more uniform spectrum. Incandescent is mostly red, fluorescent mostly blue.

Broadly speaking they all emit electromagnetic waves in the form of light.
However sunlight is a broad spectrum of waves from radio up to ultra violet and beyond. Incandescent is infra-red to blue, and fluorescent will be some combination of colour phosphors that appears white to the eye but may have big gaps in the spectrum.

I'm no expert...but I think there's a lot of differences in light spectrum and frequency lengths. Something like sun light has all/most light wave frequencies and indoor lighting misses certain ranges. They do make indoor light that are grow lights and natural light like...but they cost more.
